Verity’ trailer unveils a dark new thriller starring Dakota Johnson, Anne Hathaway
The first trailer for Verity has arrived, offering audiences an unsettling glimpse at the upcoming psychological thriller starring Dakota Johnson, Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett.
Based on Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel of the same name, the Amazon MGM Studios adaptation follows Lowen Ashleigh, played by Johnson, a struggling writer who receives an unexpected opportunity when she is hired to complete a successful author’s unfinished book series.
Hathaway portrays Verity Crawford, the celebrated writer whose life changes dramatically after a serious accident leaves her unable to continue working. Lowen travels to the Crawford family’s secluded home to examine Verity’s notes and research for the books, but what initially appears to be a straightforward writing assignment quickly takes a disturbing turn.
As Lowen begins sorting through Verity’s personal papers, she discovers a shocking manuscript containing revelations about the Crawford family. The material forces her to question how much she truly knows about Verity, her marriage and the events surrounding the family’s darkest moments.
Hartnett stars as Jeremy Crawford, Verity’s husband and a grieving father whose relationship with Lowen becomes increasingly complicated as she spends more time inside the family home.
Directed by Michael Showalter, the film leans heavily into the novel’s atmosphere of suspense, secrecy and psychological uncertainty. The trailer teases a tense dynamic between Johnson, Hathaway and Hartnett, while the isolated Crawford residence becomes an ominous backdrop for Lowen’s investigation.
The film’s promotional artwork mirrors that unsettling tone. Its striking poster is divided by a bold letter “V,” accompanied by the ominous tagline, “There is no light where we’re going.”
The adaptation is scheduled to arrive in theaters on October 2, bringing Hoover’s controversial and twist-filled story to the big screen. The trailer has already generated anticipation among readers familiar with the novel, particularly over how its major revelations will translate to film.
With a high-profile cast, a dark premise and a story built around uncertainty, Verity is positioning itself as one of the season’s most closely watched psychological thrillers.
