Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett are bringing Colleen Hoover's bestselling novel Verity to life on the big screen. The psychosexual thriller follows the story of Verity Crawford, a bestselling author who is unable to finish her latest novel after a car accident, and her husband Jeremy, who hires a struggling writer named Lowen to complete the book. Hathaway will play the role of Verity, while Hartnett will play her husband Jeremy. Dakota Johnson is also set to star in the movie as Lowen, the struggling writer who gets hired to finish Verity's book.

The movie adaptation of Verity is currently in production, with Michael Showalter directing the film. The story takes a dark and unexpected turn as Lowen discovers a secret manuscript that threatens to reveal chilling secrets about Verity and her husband's past. As Lowen delves deeper into the mystery, she must discern whether Verity's writings are merely fiction or a warning from a deranged psychopath. The film is expected to be released in theaters, although an official premiere date has not been announced yet.
