During a delay in filming, the French producers held a mini-rave on set.
Clash Music quotes an interview with Tron: Legacy producer Sean Bailey where he relates a “cool little anecdote”.
He said, “One night one of the cameras went down so we couldn't shoot for a couple hours. So there was this impromptu rave in the Tron warehouse in the middle of the night with Daft Punk deejaying.”
Director Joe Kosinski noted that everyone was in costume for the 4am dance party.
They spoke to website io9 and revealed some interesting factoids about Daft Punk’s involvement.
The producer and director actually met up with Daft Punk before there was even a script for the film.
Kosinski said, “I quickly realized that the guys and I had a good creative vibe. We wanted to create a classic film score that sounded like nothing else. We started on the music very early and built the soundtrack as we were writing the script and storyboarding and pre-visualising the movie.”
They played tracks on set during shooting and the music was also used during the editing process.
The soundtrack to the film is out now, and the film will begin screening this Thursday, December 16.
