Here’s every song on the ‘Ripley’ soundtrack
The new television series Ripley is one of the most talked-about Netflix releases of the moment, but what songs are on the soundtrack?
Andrew Scott takes the title role in the latest adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s 1955 novel The Talented Mr. Ripley, opposite Dakota Fanning and Johnny Flynn.
The story, shot entirely in black and white, follows Scott’s character as he takes on a job assignment to take a trip to Italy in an attempt to persuade his employer’s son, Dickie Greenleaf (Flynn), to return home from Europe. As the series progresses, Tom Ripley works his way into the lives of Dickie and his girlfriend Marge (Fanning) and the story takes a dark turn.
The novel has been adapted several times before, most famously in 1999 with a feature film starring Matt Damon, Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow in the lead roles.
Ripley has been created by Steven Zaillian (Schindler’s List, Gangs of New York), and all eight episodes are available to stream on Netflix now.

The score for the show has been composed by Jeff Russo, who founded the bands Tonic and Low Stars, and has worked on the soundtracks for Fargo and Star Trek: Discovery.
Speaking to Netflix about the music, Russo has said: “The final score for Ripley is the result of two years of writing for a story that is so extraordinarily well crafted, the music just seemed to flow out effortlessly somehow.
“The thrilling and emotionally manipulative narrative contains so much tension, confusion and misdirection, and it was incredible to channel into that dynamic for this score.”
In addition, the show includes a number of songs, many of them from Italian operas. See the full list below.
