Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the composers behind the upcoming Naughty Dog game Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, have added another accolade to their impressive list of achievements: a Golden Globe for Best Original Score. Their award-winning work graces Luca Guadagnino's film Challengers.
The recent Intergalactic trailer showcased a preview of their composition, alongside licensed tracks featured in the game. Reznor and Ross, renowned for their long-standing collaboration with Nine Inch Nails and their acclaimed scores for films directed by David Fincher and Pete Docter, previously won an Academy Award for The Social Network and Soul, along with multiple Grammys, an Emmy, and a BAFTA. Reznor also boasts experience composing for video games, notably the soundtrack for 1996's Quake and the title track for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
Accepting their Golden Globe for the romantic sports drama Challengers, Ross described the score as "never a safe choice, but always the right one." The dynamic electronic soundtrack perfectly complements the film's edgy athleticism and sensual themes. Given their current creative peak, Intergalactic's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.
Golden Globe Success Underscores Intergalactic's Promise
The unlikely pairing of Nine Inch Nails' industrial rock origins with the world of contemporary gaming and film has proven remarkably successful. Reznor and Ross have consistently demonstrated their musical versatility, crafting haunting soundscapes for The Social Network, ethereal scores for Soul, and now, the mysterious soundscape for Naughty Dog's space-faring adventure. With online hints suggesting a horror element to Intergalactic, their musical choices seem particularly fitting.
The Golden Globe win further elevates the anticipation surrounding Intergalactic, a game that may represent a significant shift for Naughty Dog. Given their impeccable track record, the game's soundtrack promises a truly exceptional auditory experience.
