Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross (The Social Network, Soul, Watchmen, Challengers, Gone Girl, Soul, TRON: Ares, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Mank) have been tapped to score the upcoming horror thriller Slayground. The film is written and directed by Jeremy Saulnier (Green Room, Rebel Ridge) and stars Cory Michael Smith, Chase Sui Wonders, Sophie Wilde, James Badge Dale, Stephen Root, Stanley Simons, Chris Sullivan, Young Mazino, Matty Matheson, Imogen Poots and Macon Blair. The movie follows a “scare-actor” who wakes up in a haunted attraction surrounded by the dead bodies of his co-workers with no memory of how they got there and – as a state-wide manhunt closes in – races to uncover the truth. Reznor & Ross are also producing the project with the director, Skei Saulnier (Murder Party), Richard Peete (The Legend of Ochi, Low Tide) and Eli Bush (Marty Supreme, Lady Bird). Slayground will be released in theaters nationwide on January 29, 2027 by A24.
