With their techno synth-pop sound and penchant for shiny helmets, Daft Punk felt like the obvious choice to compose the score for 2010's Tron: Legacy. Nine Inch Nails doing the music for Tron: Ares seems like a massive curveball, then, but producers Sean Bailey and Emma Ludbrook insist the rock band are the "perfect fit" for the upcoming sci-fi sequel.
"Daft Punk had set such an extraordinarily high bar, and we really thought and talked a lot about who it might be to do [the music for] this film," Bailey tells GamesRadar+. "We thought that what Trent [Reznor] and Atticus [Ross] do was just such a perfect fit for this Tron, which is a little more industrial, a little more on the Dillinger side of things; a little heavier, a little darker. I think they've created something that's, you know, a wonderful blend of that Tron signature and what Nine Inch Nails do so well."
