Kelly had not yet named the Montreal-based rockers as his collaborators, but the news, which marks Arcade Fire's first film score, was leaked by producer/engineer Markus Dravs on his official website, according to Pitchfork.
Dravs, who last worked with the band on their 2007 album "Neon Bible," wrote, "... having finished Coldplay's forthcoming album 'Viva La Vida' -- now off to Canada to work with Arcade Fire on a soundtrack for the forthcoming Richard Kelly film."
"The Box," which is expected to hit theatres by the end of 2008, stars Cameron Diaz and James Marsden in an adaptation of Richard Matheson's 1970 short story "Button Button."
A number of Matheson's works have been adapted for the big screen, including his novels "What Dreams May Come," "Stir of Echoes" and "I Am Legend."
