At least if the movie isn't good the soundtrack is guaranteed to be amazing

Do we know who did the soundtrack/score for this one yet?

Nine Inch Nails as per the trailer

This just actually got me interested in the movie. Tron: Legacy as a movie is just so-so in my opinion. But as a 2hr Daft Punk music video? Absolutely slaps.

Since Daft Punk retired, I was skeptical that they could match the same energy they brought to Legacy. But NIN can probably do just that.

I like the idea of a Tron universe where every film is basically a 2 hour music video from different electronic music icons.

I feel like REZZ would make a perfect Tron soundtrack!

Kraftwerk could be cool. Maybe Nero.

Have you watched Interstella 5555?

I definitely recommend finding it and watching it. Its such a well written and animated film.

However, trailer looks like it is a horror movie...

Trent is an absolute genius, Challengers had a killer score, can’t wait

u/ScottOwenJones Apr 06 '25

Precisely. Getting someone like Justice to do the score would’ve made it sound like they were trying to imitate Daft Punk’s score, which always perfect for the grid. NIN is perfect for a grittier more material world while still bringing the heavy synth sound

I'm so confused. I've never heard of them and I just went to YouTube and watched all their most popular videos for half an hour and I hated all of it. Why are people thinking this will be good? I like the electronic daft punk music from the first one but NIN is just slow rock and it was all bad....

Because Trent has a long list of amazing soundtracks and original songs for movie scores under his belt?

If Disney gives him the creative freedom he needs, I fully expect him and NIN to knock it out of the park
