Taylor Swift’s version of Look What You Made Me Do was recently featured in The Handmaid's Tale season 6 episode 9. The track was played in the first few minutes of the latest episode which aired on May 20, 2025, on Hulu.
The song was originally released on August 24, 2017, and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It came from her album Reputation, which topped the Billboard 200 for four weeks. Since 2023, Swift has been re-recording her first six albums to seemingly regain ownership of their masters.

The Handmaid's Tale star Elizabeth Moss on Taylor Swift's version of Look What You Made Me Do
Elizabeth Moss, who plays June Osborne on The Handmaid's Tale, spoke about Taylor Swift's song playing in the show during their opening sequence. During an exclusive interview with Billboard, released on May 20, 2025, Moss said:
“I’ve been wanting to use a Taylor song for many years on the show and we finally found the perfect spot for a track from her, and I’m so glad we waited because there could not be a more perfect song for a more perfect moment.
The actress called Taylor Swift an "inpiration" and mentioned how the whole cast of the show felt honored to have this musical contribution from the artist.
"Taylor has been such an inspiration to me personally. As a Swiftie myself, and I think I can speak for [co-star] Yvonne [Strahovski] and our entire cast as well, who are all Swifties, it’s such an honor to be able to use her music in the final episodes of our show."
In the opening sequence of season 6 episode 9, June Osborne (Elizabeth Moss) led an uprising against the Commanders. Look What You Made Do (Taylor's Version) complemented this scene where fans saw explosions and the handmaids walking in a formation.
“I said to my editor, Wendy, ‘I really want to find a place for a Taylor track in the last 2 episodes of the show’ and we wanted to find a music queue for the opening of 9, and all the credit goes to Wendy for picking this track for this moment!,” Moss added.
Notably, Moss visited Swift's Eras Tour in Toronto last year with her The Handmaid's Tale co-star Bradley Whitford (Commander Lawrence).
