Glen Powell as Gary Johnson in Hit Man (2023) above a background of musical notes and sheet music
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Hit Man features a varied list of songs and artists, all compiled onto the film's soundtrack. Hit Man tells the true story of Gary Johnson, a man who finds a talent for acting as a fake hitman to gain confessions from unsuspecting criminals. Glen Powell brings Gary to life in Hit Man's ensemble cast, with director Richard Linklater imbuing the film with many of his trademark qualities.
"Space Zydeco" by Buckwheat Zydeco - After the opening scene of Gary teaching, a montage plays showing his journey home through New Orleans. As this transpires onscreen, "Space Zydeco" plays in the background. This certainly makes sense, as the artist responsible for the song was born in Louisiana. The song plays again later in the film, as another montage shows Gary explaining the life of a hitman.
"Big Chief" by Professor Longhair - In Hit Man, several of Gary's stings are shown in montage format. There are two main montages in the film that depict Gary's exploits, both accompanied by Professor Longhair's "Big Chief." Professor Longhair is another Louisana native known for his work in the New Orleans Blues genre of music, meaning his utilization in the film set in the city in question makes a lot of sense.
"Down Home Girl" by Alvin Robinson - Another example of diegetic sound, "Down Home Girl" can be heard playing in a bar. This scene comes shortly after Madison and Gary are shown to bond in the park. The two are sat talking in a New Orleans bar as the song begins playing. "When It's Sleepy Time Down South" by Ruby Braff - Later in the film, Gary and Madison are shown talking in the bathtub together. As this scene plays out, Ruby Braff's song begins playing. This song can be heard a second time in the third act of the film, shortly after Madison and Gary are confronted by the former's ex-husband outside a nightclub who later contacts one of Gary's many hidden Hit Man aliases.
"Such a Night" by Dr. John - After the real-life accomplishments of Gary Johnson are outlined, the regular end credits of the film begin. The song "Such a Night" is played over these credits, again linking to the setting of the film. Dr. John was born, lived, and died in New Orleans, with two of his iconic songs being utilized across Hit Man's runtime.
