What other films have Reznor and Ross scored?
Reznor and Ross lent their talents to the soundtracks of recent films such as Queer and Challengers. During awards season, film fans expressed widespread shock at the pair being snubbed for an Oscar for best original score. They did, however, win the Golden Globe in the same category.
Reznor has also worked on music for films such as Empire Of Light, The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo and Gone Girl.

Joachim Rønning helmed the film, which stars Jared Leto as Ares, an A.I being who is sent from the digital world to the real world on a dangerous mission.
Jeff Bridges reprises his role as Kevin Flynn. Bridges has featured in both of the past chapters of TRON.
Tron: Ares will arrive in theaters on 10 October, 2025, including IMAX 3D.
The road to the sequel has been rather bumpy. A sequel to Tron: Legacy was confirmed in 2015 but Disney scrapped the plans, potentially relating to their purchase of Marvel and Lucasfilm.
However, in 2023, it seemed a third Tron film was back on. Production began later than planned due to the Hollywood strikes that year.
