Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet Composers Snag Golden Globe

Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the composers behind the soundtrack for Naughty Dog's upcoming title Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, have added another accolade to their impressive list of achievements: a Golden Globe for Best Original Score. This award recognizes their work on Luca Guadagnino's film Challengers.

The recent Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet trailer showcased a preview of Reznor and Ross's composition, alongside snippets of licensed music featured in the game.

Reznor and Ross are renowned for their extensive collaboration on Nine Inch Nails, and for their critically acclaimed film scores, working with directors such as David Fincher and Pete Docter. Their previous awards include an Academy Award for Best Original Score (for both The Social Network and Soul), multiple Grammys, an Emmy, and a BAFTA. Reznor also has a history of composing for video games, notably providing the soundtrack for 1996's Quake and the main title track for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Accepting the Golden Globe for Challengers, a romantic sports drama, Ross described the score as "never a safe choice, but always the right one." The contemporary, electronic score perfectly complements the film's edgy athleticism and sensual themes. Given their current creative momentum, the Intergalactic soundtrack is highly anticipated as a potential all-time great.
