Cast

Music

The Crystal Method composed their third soundtrack, along with the American music composer, Tobias Enhus for the soundtrack for the film. Enhus has also composed soundtracks himself for such titles as Black Hawk Down, The Matrix: Path of Neo, and the Spider-Man 3 video game. In an interview, The Crystal Method said that they provided several of their songs for the film, including "Drown in the Now", which was used for the trailer of the movie. The other songs that they provided have been remixed exclusively for the film, such as a new remix of The Crystal Method's first single "Now Is the Time", and several songs from their Drive: Nike + Original Run album like "It's Time". A remix of "It's Time" is featured prominently on the official website of the film and is the first song that plays while viewing the website, followed by other songs, including the title track from Divided by Night.[3]

ESPN itself promoted the film during their broadcast of X Games 15 with trailers and exclusive interviews with the athletes. The day before the release of X Games 3D, ESPN reaired events of X Games 15 as well as interviews with the athletes and celebrities that took place on the red carpet premiere outside the Nokia Theater. Online advertisements also helped promote the film with advertisements being seen on popular websites such as Yahoo!, MySpace, and YouTube.
