During a presentation yesterday at a D23 fan event in Anaheim, California, Disney announced that Trent Reznor’s groundbreaking group, Nine Inch Nails, will handle the score for Tron: Ares, the third installment of the cyber-futuristic science fiction film series, set for release in October 2025.
The core members of the band, Reznor and Atticus Ross, have scored more than a dozen films, from 2010’s The Social Network to this year’s Challengers, but the new Tron movie will be the first score attributed to Nine Inch Nails. It will also feature new original songs from the band, its first since the fifth and sixth installments of the Ghosts series, released in 2020.
Directed by Joachim Rønning and starring Jared Leto, Jeff Bridges, and Greta Lee, Tron: Ares is the follow-up to 2010’s Tron: Legacy, which was scored by Daft Punk, who also made a cameo. It is unknown whether Reznor or other members of the band will appear in the new movie. At D23, the announcement was preceded by a trailer, not yet made public, that featured the band’s 1989 song “Something I Can Never Have.”
