Also starring in Soul are Tina Fey, Questlove, Daveed Diggs, and Phylicia Rashad. The film is set to come out June 19th, 2020.

This is, of course, not Reznor and Ross' first rodeo when it comes to scoring films. The duo won an Oscar for their score of The Social Network, and have also created original music for such movies as Bird Box and Jonah Hill's mid90s, not to mention their chilling take on John Carpenter's Halloween theme. It'll be interesting to hear how they get across the inner workings of the cartoon soul, but if anyone could nail that, it'd be them.
In a recent interview with Kerrang!, Reznor discussed the seemingly endless barrage of pop culture thrown his way these days, and how it makes even the idea of doing promotion for his music feel difficult. “The difficulty of doing promotional press,” he said, "is that I feel we’re having a conversation, a discussion, in which some relevant points are made, and some stupid shit comes along, too. It’s not the fault of the New York Times piece itself, but the other 50 articles that reference it, with headlines like ‘Trent Reznor slams Taylor Swift’. It goes around the room and suddenly I’m like, ‘I said what?!’ It’s pointless to try to explain, particularly to the angry mob.”
