Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet Composers Snag Golden Globe

Nine Inch Nails masterminds Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the composers behind the upcoming Naughty Dog title 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: 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 extensive collaboration spanning decades (including Reznor's iconic Nine Inch Nails), the duo boasts an Academy Award for The Social Network and Soul, multiple Grammys, an Emmy, and a BAFTA. Reznor's previous game soundtracks include Quake (1996) and the main title theme for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Accepting their Golden Globe for the romantic sports drama Challengers, Ross commented on their approach, stating the score, while unconventional, felt undeniably right. The dynamic electronic soundtrack perfectly complements the film's blend of athletic intensity and sensual undertones. Given their current creative peak, Intergalactic's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.

Golden Globe Win Fuels Anticipation for Intergalactic

The unlikely pairing of Nine Inch Nails' industrial rock origins and the world of contemporary games and film has proven remarkably successful for Reznor and Ross. Their musical versatility is evident, from the haunting soundscapes of The Social Network to the ethereal beauty of Soul. With online speculation suggesting a horror element in Intergalactic, their musical choices seem particularly fitting.

This Golden Globe win further amplifies the excitement surrounding Intergalactic, a potentially significant departure for Naughty Dog. Given their impeccable track record, fans can anticipate an exceptional soundscape, regardless of the game's final form.
