Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have teamed up on another new score for a David Fincher film, this time for The Killer, a thriller coming to Netflix this fall. They announced the news with plans for a deluxe 3xLP release of their 2020 score for Fincher’s Mank. The Killer is based on a French comic book series of the same name, and Fincher’s take is out November 10.
Reznor and Ross won the Best Original Score Academy Award for their work scoring Fincher’s hit The Social Network in 2010. They joined the director again for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Gone Girl, and Mank. In addition to doing the music for Damon Lindelof’s Watchmen adaptation and Sam Mendes’ Empire of Light, Ross and Reznor also co-produced Halsey’s 2021 album, If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power. The artists most recently added to their Academy Award collection with a Best Original Score trophy for 2020’s Soul.
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story incorrectly indicated that Luca Guadagnino directed Empire of Light, but the film was directed by Sam Mendes. (Incidentally, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross directed the latest movie from Guadagnino, Bones and All.)
