Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have received two Oscar nominations for Best Original Score. The duo were nominated for their soundtrack work on Mank, David Fincher’s biopic about the Citizen Kane screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz, and also for their work on the the Pixar animated jazz film Soul, a nomination that they share with Jon Batiste.
Soul picked up a Golden Globe for Best Original Score category back In February, with both the pair’s scores having also been nominated. Reznor and Ross have become highly sought after for their film and TV soundtracks, having previously scored incidental music for David Fincher’s The Social Network (which they won an Oscar for in 2011) and Gone Girl, HBO’s Watchmen, Ken Burns’ PBS documentary The Vietnam War and more.
The 93rd Academy Awards is set to take place on April 25, 2021.
