Regretting You Soundtrack Revealed: Every Song in Colleen Hoover’s New Adaptation
The Fault in Our Stars director Josh Boone brings Colleen Hoover’s 2019 bestseller Regretting You to the screen with a moody, gut-punch soundtrack, diving into a mother-daughter saga of love, loss, and the beautiful mess in between.
File this under: moody love story with a playlist that actually matters. Colleen Hoover's Regretting You is headed to theaters with a soundtrack that leans indie/alt, a score with pedigree, and a few credit quirks music nerds will clock immediately.
What this one is
Josh Boone, the filmmaker behind The Fault in Our Stars, is adapting Hoover's 2019 bestseller. The movie centers on a mother and daughter working through grief, first loves, and all the messy fallout that comes with both. It is very much a feelings-forward drama, which is why the music choices carry a lot of the weight.
The vibe: intimate, lyrical, and a little under-the-radar
The needle drops feel like they were handpicked by someone who actually read the book and underlined the painful parts. Most of the songs are indie or alternative, heavy on lyrics, and not necessarily chart-bait. If you watched It Ends With Us and clocked the very famous names (Taylor Swift, Post Malone, Lana Del Rey, Lewis Capaldi), this is a different lane. Regretting You plays more like discovering a new favorite band in the middle of a breakup.

About that score
One of the big selling points here is the original score by Nathaniel Walcott, who teamed with Mike Mogis on The Fault in Our Stars and gave that film its aching, delicate musical backbone. Boone is tapping Walcott again, so expect the same tender, slow-burn approach that lets the emotional beats breathe. Translation: bring tissues.
Worth noting for the credits-watchers: the tracklist also includes two cues credited to Marco Beltrami & Marcus Trumpp, plus the studio logo sting by Michael Giacchino. So alongside the indie needle drops, the film is also weaving in identifiable score cues and the usual logo music. The paperwork here is a little tangled, but the takeaway is simple: lots of texture, lots of feelings.
Release date and where to revisit Boone's last tearjerker
Regretting You hits US theaters on October 24, 2025. If you want a refresher on Boone's style (and your tear ducts), The Fault in Our Stars is streaming on Disney+ in the US.
