Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet Composers Snag Golden Globe

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 Award. The duo received the prestigious award for Best Original Score for 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. Known for their long-standing collaboration with Nine Inch Nails and their critically acclaimed film scores for directors such as David Fincher and Pete Docter, the pair previously won an Academy Award for Best Original Score for both The Social Network and Soul, along with numerous Grammys, an Emmy, and a BAFTA. Reznor also contributed to the soundtrack of the 1996 video game Quake and the main title track for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Accepting the Golden Globe for their work on the romantic sports drama Challengers, Ross commented on the score's unique approach, stating it "never felt like a safe choice, but it always felt like the right one." The contemporary, electronic soundscape perfectly complements the film's edgy athleticism and sensual themes. Given their current creative momentum, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.

Golden Globe Win Fuels Anticipation for Intergalactic

The unlikely pairing of Nine Inch Nails' industrial rock pioneers with the worlds of contemporary gaming and film has resulted in a remarkably diverse musical output. From the haunting layers of The Social Network to the ethereal soundscapes of Soul, Reznor and Ross consistently demonstrate their versatility. With online hints suggesting a horror element in Intergalactic, their musical choices seem particularly fitting.

The Golden Globe win further elevates the anticipation surrounding Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, potentially a significant departure for Naughty Dog. Given their impeccable track record, fans can confidently expect a truly exceptional soundscape, regardless of the game's final form.
