all the – ‘Supergirl,’ the second DC Films release from James Gunn and Peter Safran, comes with a modern-leaning soundtrack that mixes acts like Wet Leg, Wolf Alice, and Modest Mouse with classic cuts. Here’s every song featured in the movie.
The hunt begins with urgency: Milly Alcock’s Kal-El cousin is on a mission to track down a villain named Krem (Matthias Schoenaerts) before an antidote can save her beloved dog Krypto from poison. But once the music kicks in, ‘Supergirl’ also delivers a soundtrack that feels stitched from both now and then.
Craig Gillespie. known for ‘I. Tonya. ’ directs the film from a screenplay by Ana Nogueira. with Alcock starring alongside Matthias Schoenaerts. Eve Ridley. David Krumholtz. Emily Beecham. and Jason Momoa. And while the movie’s vibe skews modern, Gunn’s DC Films era doesn’t completely leave the classics behind.
Here are all the songs in ‘Supergirl’:
“This Summer” by Sleigh Bells
“Digital Tattoo” by Werner Neidermeier
“Le Temps De L’Amour” by Françoise Hardy
“Catch These Fists” by Wet Leg
“Silver Lining” by Rilo Kiley
“Satin In A Coffin” by Modest Mouse
“Smile” by Wolf Alice
“(I’ve Got) Trouble In Mind” by The Limiñanas
“Girl From Ipanema” by Antônio Carlos Jobim
“Cheek to Cheek” by Ella Fitzgerald
“Safeword” by Halsey
“Care” by Hana Vu
“Don’t Speak (I Came To Make A Bang!)” by Eagles Of Death Metal
“The Middle” (Jimmy Eat World cover) by Kelty Greye and KidMotel.
The spread is the point: contemporary bands like Wet Leg, Wolf Alice, and Modest Mouse sit beside older classics including Antônio Carlos Jobim’s “Girl From Ipanema” and Ella Fitzgerald’s “Cheek to Cheek.” It’s a soundtrack that moves across decades without ever fully losing its forward momentum.
‘Supergirl’ is executive produced by Nigel Gostelow, Chantal Nong Vo, and Lars P. Winther. Gillespie’s team includes director of photography Rob Hardy, production designer Neil Lamont, editor Tatiana S. Riegel, costume designer Anna B. Sheppard, Visual Effects Supervisor Geoffrey Baumann, and composer Ramin Djawadi.
Next up for DC is ‘Clayface,’ a smaller-scale body horror movie opening in theaters in October from director James Watkins. It remains to be seen whether that film leans just as hard into recognizable tracks or leans more on score—but the Gunn-directed ‘Superman’ sequel ‘Man of Tomorrow’ (hitting theaters in 2027) is positioned to be packed with jukebox hits.
