Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the duo behind Nine Inch Nails, have announced that they will be composing the score for the upcoming Amy Adams thriller, “The Woman In the Window,” directed by Joe Wright. The film is set to be released sometime next year.

The film is based on the A.J. Finn novel of the same name, which was published just this January. Adams plays the role of a reclusive woman named Anna, who obsessively looks into the windows of her neighbors until one night (dudun!) she catches something that she shouldn’t have. Alongside Adams are stars Julianne Moore and Gary Oldman.

Reznor and Ross have been busy with a variety of other scoring projects, including the music for HBO’s upcoming television adaptation of the “unadaptable” legendary graphic novel “Watchmen.” The show is also slated to be premiering sometime in 2019.

Before either of those projects, the duo had composed the music for “A Million Little Pieces,” an adaptation of James Frey’s “memoir,” which had been significantly altered from Frey’s real life, and Jonah Hill’s directorial debut “Mid90s.”

In an interview with Variety, the pair detailed their process of balancing their work composing for soundtracks and their music with Nine Inch Nails. “We discovered over the last several years that by having a couple different things happening at once, it allows us some degree of objectivity on each project, and to actually do better work – when it’s within reason,” Reznor said. “We did ‘Vietnam’ for Ken Burns at the same time as the Nine Inch Nails record, and although both were pretty heavy thematically, stylistically it was different, so it felt like a good, complementary thing. This fall was the first time, however, we’ve actually been having to tour as one of those [simultaneous] things, and it presented a whole new level of logistical, mental and physical challenges.”

In the same interview, Reznor also clarified that he has an idea of what the next Nine Inch Nails project is going to be. “In six weeks we’re going to have a few weeks off. Maybe we could start on it there, or we may not, but it’s nice to be looking forward to that thing and subconsciously know that it’s coming up and you’re putting things in that bucket… ideas to try when it comes up. We’re just trying to make the best music possible in whatever format that might be.”
