The Matrix Reloaded – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack accompanies the 2003 science‑fiction film The Matrix Reloaded, directed by Lana and Lilly Wachowski. The film’s original score was composed by Don Davis, continuing and expanding the thematic language he developed for The Matrix (1999). Davis’ music blends orchestral action, electronic‑tinged textures, and dramatic motifs supporting key narrative moments and fight sequences.
The main commercial soundtrack album was released May 13, 2003 via Warner Bros. Records / Maverick Records. It features 19 tracks — a combination of licensed songs by various artists and select score cues used in the film, available on major platforms including Apple Music and Spotify. The licensed portion includes artists like Linkin Park, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie and others, alongside Davis’ score cues.
A separate expanded official score release (Limited Edition 2‑CD set) was later issued August 27, 2013 by La‑La Land Records, containing an extended selection of Don Davis’ original score material spanning nearly the entire film’s score across two discs. It is considered the most complete official presentation of Davis’ music for the film.
Davis’ score balances high‑octane orchestral writing with atmospheric mystery, reinforcing action sequences, emotional beats, and thematic continuity with the first film, The Matrix (1999).
Licensed music note: The original soundtrack album includes a mix of licensed songs and score cues; licensed tracks are not part of the dedicated score release.
