Daft Punk followers craving for the futuristic soundtrack of Tron: Legacy are in for a shock with the movie’s sequel, Ares, which is able to crank up the economic depth.
The divergence from the duo’s legendary Legacy soundtrack will quickly manifest within the uncooked, cinematic type of 9 Inch Nails. Band members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are a captivating pairing for the Tron franchise as a result of their innate, eerie potential to mix deeply visceral and machine-like components of their music.
The movie’s director, Joachim Rønning, has now opened up in regards to the choice to deliver on the influential band as Daft Punk’s successors.
“With Nine Inch Nails making the music, this installment will be a little grittier, a little bit more industrial,” Rønning advised Empire. “It’s been important for me to contrast The Grid and the real world. In that sense, Nine Inch Nails lends itself perfectly into this new Tron world that we are creating.”
Whereas the storyline of Ares is predicted to take a darker flip, the movie will retain a human pulse à la Daft Punk’s third album, Human After All.
“What I always look for in any story is a strong emotional core,” Rønning defined. “This film will probably be more emotional than people are expecting. It’s about the cost of being human.”
When Tron: Ares lights up theaters subsequent yr, it would break a 15-year silence since Legacy rebooted the long-lasting 1982 sci-fi saga. The star-studded solid contains Jared Leto, Evan Peters and Greta Lee, amongst others. The movie is scheduled to launch in US theaters on October tenth, 2025.
