Anne Hathaway's blockbuster year is coming to an end. After The Devil Wears Prada 2 and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, the last of Hathaway's five 2026 films is Verity, the adaptation of Colleen Hoover's bestselling psychological thriller, which is in theaters now. Hathaway takes on the unsettling title role, a departure from some of her best-known characters, while Dakota Johnson plays a struggling writer drawn into Verity's world. Josh Hartnett rounds out a cast that gives the bestselling adaptation plenty of star power.
