Reznor and Ross have collaborated on numerous film and television scores over the years, including Challengers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, Soul and The Social Network. But Tron: Ares marks the first time the Oscar-winning duo’s film music will be credited as Nine Inch Nails.

Tron: Ares stars Jared Leto, Evan Peters, Jeff Bridges, Greta Lee and Jodie Turner-Smith. The Joachim Ronning-film is the sequel to 2010’s Tron: Legacy, which was scored by Daft Punk, whose soundtrack reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Following some futuristic footage of Tron: Ares and an onstage appearance by cast members, a red laser revealed the iconic NIN logo indicating that the electronic band would be providing the score. Reznor and Ross then briefly made an onstage appearance for fans at D23. Watch the announcement here.

Tron: Ares, the third in the Tron franchise, is scheduled to hit theaters in October 2025. It builds on the original Tron movie, featuring Bridges, which was released in 1982.

“Technology and AI is omnipresent in our of our lives,” Bridges said of the forthcoming film. “What a perfect time to revisit this world. Or, have this world visit us, because that’s what happens in this movie.”

The Tron: Ares score will feature new songs by Nine Inch Nails as well as the score, according to Rolling Stone. NIN’s last album, Ghost VI: Locusts, arrived in 2020. In addition to Tron: Ares, Reznor and Ross are scoring Luca Guadagnino’s upcoming film Queer and the Scott Derrickson sci-fi thriller The Gorge, starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller.
