It's based off of the Philip K. Dick novel of the same name. Read it.

[oldy]

Pretty awesome news, methinks. I'm wondering how much it's gonna cross over with the new album. Or if the soundtrack'll have some songs from their past catalogue as well.

[fight4urdemons]

Well... this is pretty fucking incredible news.

the near future, drug addictions and paranoia.
but that other guy is right, read the book, you will probably dig the movie more.

YES !!!! I was hoping they would do this. I can't wait to see a film score that sounds like Kid A

I like how Linklater is really into Philip K. Dick. He mentions one of his books in Waking Life.

He's mentioned in various interviews about the possibility of doing a film adaption on Ubik.

UPDATE: A day after telling EW that Radiohead would be scoring A Scanner Darkly, director Richard Linklater's film adaptation of the Philip K. Dick sci-fi novel, Warner Independent Pictures is singing a slightly different tune. Instead of a full-blown original score, the film will feature music by Radiohead, including a brand-new track from lead singer Thom Yorke's upcoming solo release.

[unwritten]
