Cruel Intentions (2024) soundtrack: A definitive guide to every song in the series

thumbnail

Over two decades after the original, Amazon Prime Video has come back with a reboot of Cruel Intentions, this time in the form of a series. With all eight episodes premiering on November 21, 2024, the series has already made an impression on fans, and not necessarily in the most positive way.

The new series adaptation stars Sarah Catherine Hook as Caroline Merteuil and Zac Burgess as Lucien Belmont, Caroline's step-brother. It is a more contemporary take on the story that has come to be considered a cult classic in the past two decades.

Much like the 1999 movie, Prime Video's Cruel Intentions is also filled with some excellent music, with many songs playing important roles in the progression of the storyline. Interestingly, the season finale also used The Verve’s Bitter Sweet Symphony, which was also used in the movie version, effectively creating a clever link between the two that will not be apparent to many viewers.

Apart from that, almost all the episodes of Cruel Intentions also feature some brilliant songs, which are sure to gain traction as more viewers watch the show. Without further ado, let us check the entire track list featured in the latest Amazon Prime Video show.
