Weapons (2025) soundtrack: A comprehensive list of all songs and music featured in the film

Weapons, distributed by Warner Bros Pictures on August 8, 2025, is a mystery horror film written, directed, produced, and co-scored by Zach Cregger. The ensemble cast features Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Cary Christopher, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Toby Huss, Benedict Wong, and Amy Madigan.

The story takes place in Maybrook, Pennsylvania, where seventeen elementary school students go missing all at once from their homes. The disappearances set off a complex investigation by troubled teacher Justine Gandy and grieving father Archer Graff, who is searching for his son. As they uncover the town's secrets, they realize that evil forces might be involved.

Music permeates Weapons throughout to reinforce the film's uncomfortable tension and emotional depth. Its score combines classic rock, country, and indie elements with an original composition by Hays Holladay (The Three Sessions), Ryan Holladay (Class Action Park), and Cregger himself.
