Nine Inch Nails band members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are part of a wave of established musicians that have dipped their toes into the world of film composing. Some of their scoring efforts for feature films include several David Fincher films—”The Social Network” (which they won an Academy Award for), “Gone Girl,” “Mank,” “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo“— “Bird Box,” and Pixar’s “Soul.” Now, the Oscar-winning duo has revealed they’re involved with another high-profile feature film.
On their official Nine Inch Nails Discord forum, Ross has confirmed that their new project is now completed as they’ve scored for “Bones & All” the latest film from Italian director Luca Guadagnino (“Suspira“), as spotted by British outlet Far Out Magazine.
“We have finished the score to Luca Guadagnino’s ‘Bones & All’ starring Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell,” Ross said on Discord, plainly, not revealing much else.
The coming-of-age romance horror which features cannibalism has a stellar cast that consists of Timothée Chalamet, Taylor Russell, Mark Rylance, Michael Stuhlbarg, André Holland, Jessica Harper, Chloe Sevigny, and more.
Guadagnino has promised that “Bones & All” will be an “extremely romantic movie” despite the cannibal aspect while speaking with Fantastic Man.
“I like to think that ‘Bones and All’ is an extremely romantic movie, addressing the romanticism that lies within us and within relationships in general,” Guadagnino explains. “Of course, there’s the literal aspect of it being a movie about cannibal lovers, which is extreme in many ways, but I think the more extreme aspect of the movie is the intensity of the feelings that these people go through – the impossibility of love.”
Meanwhile, Guadagnino’s“Call Me By Your Name” sequel is still on hold due to the allegations against star Armie Hammer and the director recently confirmed that his BBC series remake of “Brideshead Revisited” has been shelved. The filmmaker is also working on a biopic focused on the beloved actress Audrey Hepburn with Rooney Mara attached to star, and his remake of the gangster flick “Scarface” at Universal.
