Following his update earlier this week, Nine Inch Nails front man Trent Reznor has retaken to the official NIN messageboard to add another quick update on his life. It turns out that unfortunately he will not be scoring or appearing in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter after all. Trent says that “when the news mysteriously leaked out about my involvement I hadn’t made up my mind completely,” and it appears he has decided to pass on the project.
While it would have been cool to see Trent show us his acting chops, as long as it means he will be able to spend more time on music (specifically new NIN) then I’m all for it.
Reznor also mentions that he is producing a Year Zero mini-series which is currently being written.

Don’t believe everything you read. As it turns out, I WON’T be working on (acting or scoring) ALVH after all. There’s no juicy story here, it’s just that when the news mysteriously leaked out about my involvement I hadn’t made up my mind completely, because various aspects of the project were changing. I felt the need to say something earlier this week because my inbox was filling up with speculation, and at that moment I thought I would be doing it. Confused yet? Apparently I am.
Bottom line, I wish them the best with the film and I’m sure it will still be great.
Also, in all the excitement of the last note I forgot to mention we’re still fully engaged with the Year Zero mini-series, writing away.
