Nine Inch Nails have shared details of their first original soundtrack project, for upcoming film Tron: Ares.
The soundtrack features 24 pieces of music made especially for the film, and comes off the back of Nine Inch Nails members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’ past extensive soundtrack work as a duo for films such as The Social Network, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and Challengers.
To mark the full announcement of the soundtrack, Nine Inch Nails have shared lead single ‘As Alive As You Need Me To Be’, which you can listen to below. The song features in the new trailer for Tron: Ares, the third film in the Tron franchise, and marks the first new music from the band in five years.
Tron: Ares is directed by Joachim Rønning and stars Jared Leto, Jeff Bridges and Greta Lee. It follows the 2010 release of Tron: Legacy, which was scored by Daft Punk. It was first revealed that Nine Inch Nails would be soundtracking the new film last August during an Official Disney Fan Club event. The film debuts in UK cinemas on October 10.
Interscope will release Tron: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) on September 19, 2025.
