Radiohead to score Chuck Palahniuk’s ‘Choke’ Adaptation!

Choke is one of my most anticipated films of the year, as it is one of my favorite books.   Sam Rockwell stars as a sex addict who chokes on food on purpose to get sympathy money to help pay for his mother’s hospital bills; the film only gets crazier from there.   But, even cooler news is that Radiohead is going to score the entire film!   Head over to Pitch Fork for more.

“Despite reports to the contrary this morning, Radiohead are not, and will not, be scoring the new Chuck Palahniuk movie, Choke.

According to The Playlist, which contacted music supervisors for the project, Radiohead haven’t even recorded a new song for the film. Instead, the closing credits are going to utilize “Reckoner† from In Rainbows.

The confusion came from a quote to BBC by Palahniuk, who apparently misspoke, saying “So Clark got Radiohead to contribute a song; to write a song for the very end of the movie, the final credits.†

Either Palahniuk misunderstood, or he’s never heard In Rainbows.

The soundtrack is due out digitally on September 23, and it features contributions from the likes of the Twilight Singers, Ben Kweller, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, The Fiery Furnaces, and Rogue Wave.”
