TRENT REZNOR Scoring 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo'

January 10, 2011

According to The Pulse Of Radio, NINE INCH NAILS mainman Trent Reznor revealed in a streaming video interview with The New York Times that he is composing the score for "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo", the American film version of the best-selling thriller about an underground computer hacker teaming with a journalist to investigate a dark conspiracy. The director of the movie is David Fincher, who also directed "The Social Network" and hired Reznor and collaborator Atticus Ross to write the music for that film. "The Social Network" score is nominated for a Golden Globe Award and is also likely to receive an Oscar nomination as well.

Reznor will apparently be working with Ross again on the score for "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo". He said to expect something different from the duo's work on "The Social Network".

Reznor said in the interview that he has been working on the music for about six weeks.

Fincher is shooting the film now, which stars Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara, with a late 2011 release planned.

The film is based on the first of three massively popular novels by Swedish journalist Stieg Larsson, who died in 2004 before his books were published.
