'Intergalactic' Hymn Nabs Coveted Globe

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 Award. The duo won Best Original Score for their work on Luca Guadagnino's film Challengers.

The recent trailer for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet showcased a preview of their score, alongside licensed music featured in the game. Reznor and Ross, renowned for their long-standing collaboration with Nine Inch Nails and their acclaimed film scores (including Academy Awards for The Social Network and Soul), are no strangers to the world of video game soundtracks. Reznor previously composed the soundtrack for Quake (1996) and the main title track for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Accepting the Golden Globe from presenters Elton John and Brandi Carlile, Ross described the Challengers score as "never...a safe choice, but it always felt like the right one." The contemporary, club-influenced electronic score perfectly complements the film's edgy athleticism and sensuality. Given their current creative peak, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.

Golden Globe Win Shines Spotlight on Intergalactic

While their Nine Inch Nails roots might suggest a niche style, Reznor and Ross have consistently demonstrated remarkable versatility, crafting haunting soundscapes for The Social Network, ethereal melodies for Soul, and now, the mysterious soundscape for Naughty Dog's space opera. With online speculation suggesting horror elements in Intergalactic, their musical choices seem particularly fitting.

The Golden Globe win further amplifies anticipation for Intergalactic, potentially a significant departure for Naughty Dog. Given their impeccable track record, fans can confidently expect a captivating and memorable score, regardless of the game's final form.
