Radiohead Song To Appear In New Movie

Radiohead have denied they are to provide the full score for the movie adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's 2001 novel, Choke.

A spokesperson for band has now said: "No one in the Radiohead organization is aware of the band composing any original, incidental, or ambient music for Chokeā€.

The Reckoner, a track taken from In Rainbows, will be used for the closing credits sequence.

The author recently revealed that he listened to the band's 1993 debut Pablo Honey incessantly during the writing of the book and was delighted that the band had agreed to join the project. "I quit believing in my own life at this point! My life is just too incredible to be believable anymore. It's a living dream" he told BBC 6Music.

Director Clark Gregg's movie will star Sam Rockwell and Anjelica Huston and follows the life of a con artist who ensnares his victims by pretending to choke at various restaurants in order to secure money for his sick mother.

Choke is set to hit screens in November.

  • Hi guys! They're actually not scoring the entire movie. The band confirmed that it's just one of the songs off the latest album that will be played during the end credits.
