Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, composers for Naughty Dog's upcoming title Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, have won a Golden Globe Award. Their Best Original Score win was for Luca Guadagnino's film Challengers.

The recently released Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet trailer showcased their work, blending original compositions with licensed tracks. Reznor and Ross are renowned for their long-standing collaboration in Nine Inch Nails, along with critically acclaimed scores for films directed by David Fincher and Pete Docter. Their accolades include an Academy Award for The Social Network and Soul, multiple Grammys, an Emmy, and a BAFTA.

Accepting the Golden Globe for the romantic sports drama Challengers, Ross described their score as "never…a safe choice, but always the right one." The contemporary electronic music complements the film's edgy athleticism and sensuality. Given their current creative peak, Intergalactic's soundtrack is poised to be a standout.
