Taylor Swift’s ‘Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor’s Version)’ Debuts in The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6

 Taylor Swift’s re-recorded track “Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor’s Version)” made a striking debut in Season 6 of Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale, premiering during the episode’s opening scene on May 19, 2025. The intense, vengeful tone of the track aligned perfectly with the show’s dystopian atmosphere, playing over a haunting march sequence.

This appearance marks another milestone in Swift’s re-recording journey as she reclaims control of her early music catalog. Executive producer and lead actress Elisabeth Moss, an outspoken Swift fan, revealed the collaboration had been in discussion for years. Editor Wendy Hallam Martin emphasized the creative synergy between the track and the scene, citing its thematic depth and rhythmic pacing.

This is the second Reputation (Taylor’s Version) track to be featured in a major series, following “Delicate (Taylor’s Version)” in The Summer I Turned Pretty. Fans are now speculating that the full re-release of Reputation (TV) may be announced soon, potentially at the upcoming American Music Awards.

Originally released in 2017, “Look What You Made Me Do” was the lead single from Reputation, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and breaking several streaming and YouTube records. With its revival in The Handmaid’s Tale, the song reclaims center stage, blending pop power with cultural commentary once again.
