Tron: Ares has arrived in cinemas, but what songs make up the much-anticipated soundtrack? Find the full list below.
Tron: Ares is the sequel to 2010’s Tron: Legacy – which included a score from Daft Punk – and the third film in Disney’s Tron franchise. According to synopsis it follows a “highly sophisticated Program, Ares, who is sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission, marking humankind’s first encounter with A.I. beings.”
It stars Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Jodie Turner-Smith, Gillian Anderson and Jeff Bridges, who all attended the Hollywood premiere for the film on Monday night (October 6) alongside Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Both musicians make a brief cameo in the film and they served as executive producers.
It was released in cinemas on Friday (October 10).
Tron: Ares is directed by Joachim Rønning, the Norwegian filmmaker known for helming Maleficent: Mistress Of Evil and Young Woman And The Sea, and was written by Jesse Wigutow (Daredevil: Born Again).

The 1982 original featured a score from the influential composer Wendy Carlos, a pioneer of electronic music, and it used a hybrid of orchestral music and Moog synthesisers. For 2010’s Tron: Legacy, Daft Punk stepped into the role of composer, their first full film score.
This time around, Nine Inch Nails have scored the film. It is the first time that the band’s name has been used on a soundtrack since the 1996 video game Quake, although Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are highly acclaimed film composers on titles such as The Social Network, Gone Girl, Soul and Challengers.
Outside the TCL Chinese Theater at the film’s premiere, they performed the single ‘As Alive As You Need Me To Be’, which they have been showcasing on their North American tour dates, below the hovering Recognizer robot from the film.
They went on to debut two further songs from the soundtrack – ‘Forked Reality’ and ‘Shadow Over Me’ – and also performed their 2007 track ‘The Warning’ with Boys Noize.
