'Verity' puts Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson and Josh Hartnett in a steamy Colleen Hoover thriller
The thriller follows a struggling writer who moves into a novelist’s home and begins to suspect a 19% box office rebound, the studio said.
- On Friday, the psychological thriller Verity opens in theaters, starring Anne Hathaway as a novelist unable to speak or move after a car accident whose secret autobiography becomes central to the plot.
- Dakota Johnson portrays Lowen, a struggling author hired to complete Verity's remaining novels, who moves into the writer's home and begins fantasizing about her more successful counterpart's life and husband.
- Within the home, Lowen discovers a disturbing autobiography and begins to suspect Verity might be faking her paralysis, while Josh Hartnett plays the caring husband who suggests Lowen borrow the novelist's dresses.
- None of the three leads—Hathaway, Johnson, and Hartnett—had worked together before, creating intensity on set; Hathaway recently told The Associated Press, "There would be some shots where Dakota and I would just have to stare at each other."
- Hathaway's four movies have earned over $2.5 billion worldwide this year, with the domestic box office up around 19%, reflecting strong audience appetite for theatrical releases post-pandemic.
