Actor Edward Norton has revealed that Radiohead helped contribute to the score for his new movie, Stone.

Norton, who stars alongside Robert De Niro in the thriller, met with Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood when he was developing the script for the film.

He said the pair helped lay the foundation for the film's atmospheric soundtrack, which was composed by John O'Brien.

“I'm friends with the guys in Radiohead, and Jonny Greenwood, who did the incredible score for Paul Anderson's There Will Be Blood, met me in London a while back when John (Curran, director) and I were developing the script," Norton told Variety.

"So given the spiritual ties in this film, I started talking to him about this idea: 'What would you use to record this divine-like tuning sound?'

“And he and Thom had been playing a lot of weird ambient stuff at the time and so, amazingly, they just unloaded tons and tons of files to us of these sound experiments that they had been doing.”

He added: “We just listened to them in awe until John (Curran) eventually got John O'Brien to come in and see what he could make of it."

Stone, which also stars Milla Jovovich, is released in the US this month.
