Reznor and Ross's Golden Globe Win Fuels Anticipation for Intergalactic Soundtrack
Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the composers behind the upcoming Naughty Dog game Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, have added another accolade to their impressive resume: 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 Reznor and Ross's score, alongside licensed music. This dynamic duo, renowned for their collaboration on Nine Inch Nails and acclaimed film scores for directors like 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's previous video game work includes the soundtrack for 1996's Quake and the main title theme for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
Accepting the Golden Globe for Challengers, Ross described the score as "never a safe choice, but always the right one." The contemporary, club-infused electronic score perfectly complements the film's edgy athleticism and sensuality. Given their current creative peak, Intergalactic's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.

With online speculation suggesting a horror element in Intergalactic, the choice of Reznor and Ross feels particularly fitting.
This Golden Globe win further amplifies the anticipation surrounding Intergalactic, a game potentially representing a significant shift for Naughty Dog. Given their flawless track record, the soundtrack promises an exceptional auditory experience, regardless of the final game content.
