Every Anne Hathaway Movie Coming in 2026 & 2027
Like a few of her shiniest colleagues, Anne Hathaway is currently in the middle of perhaps the greatest 18-month run of her career.
If, like us, you stuck with her through the Hathahate era (a mean-spirited backlash to, amongst other things, her emotional speech after winning Best Supporting Actress for Les Miserables), this upcoming flourish of juicy blockbuster parts and captivating dramatic roles shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise, but the volume and variety are still definitely worth talking about.
In 2026 alone, we’ve already Hathaway her strut her stuff in two fashion-focused movies (more on them in a moment) and successfully hold the Kingdom of Ithaca together in Cristopher Nolan's The Odyssey, and there are still at least three more fascinating projects to come in the next year or so. With The Princess Diaries celebrating its 25th anniversary, there's really never been a better time to be an Anne Fan.
Read on to learn a bit more about each of them and use the guide to find out where to see them, whether in theatres or on services like AppleTV, Netflix, Prime Video and elsewhere.
Mother Mary was released in cinemas this April, but given all the huge movies that have come out this summer there’s a chance that it went under your radar.
Directed by David Lowery (The Green Knight, A Ghost Story), this stylish, supernatural thriller sees Hathaway play a veteran popstar – think two parts Madonna, one part Lady Gaga – who decides to collaborate with her original designer (played by the great Michaela Coel) for her next tour. If you are familiar with Lowery’s work, you’ll know that strange things will start to happen.
With close to $700 million in the bank, The Devil Wears Prada 2 has been one of the best success stories at the box office so far this year. Of course, any sequel to such a beloved movie was always going to get a lot of attention, but the return of Meryl Streep’s Amanda Priestly has been welcomed by fans, critics, and the general moviegoing public alike.
The sequel sees Hathaway’s Andy Sachs returning (alongside Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt, of course) to Runway magazine after being laid off from her job as an investigative reporter.
If you like the original, it kind of ticks all the boxes; but there's a surprising hint of globetrotting caper movies like Ocean’s Twelve in here, too. There’s even a jazzy score!

And so to the biggest of the biggies: Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. The title of Hollywood movie of the year will be a hotly-contested battle this year with Spider-Man: Brand New Day already breaking records and Avengers Doomsday and Dune: Part Three both arriving in December, but the summer’s most anticipated release – a movie based on one of the foundational texts of Western literature, told on an enormous scale, and featuring basically every A-lister we have – will take some beating.
For this one, Hathaway gives a stirring performance as Penelope, the Queen of Ithaca and the wife whom Matt Damon’s Odysseus is trying to get back to. This is Hathaway’s third collaboration with Nolan after fine performances in both Interstellar and The Dark Knight Rises. It's also their best.
Coming into 2026, the most intriguing title on Hathaway’s roster of projects was The End of Oak Street, an original sci-fi mystery (from the It Follows director David Robert Mitchel) about a suburban street that is myteriously transported to a realm full of dinosaurs. Having now seen the movie, we can confirm that it's pretty much as fun as it sounds.
The movie was produced by JJ Abrams and has the feel of one of those early Bad Robot releases like Lost or Cloverfield – which is to say, we were given very little info in the leadup to its release and the resulting movie was full of twists and surprises.
When the project was announced, some seemed to think that it might even be a secret Cloverfield project, and even though that delightfull theory didn't pan out it's still gone down as one of the most entertaining movies of the summer.
Having already done a Spielbergian suburban sci-fi, a swords and sandals epic, an A24 horror, and a hugely successful popcorn sequel in 2026, Hathaway is set to close out the year with an erotic thriller adapted from a best-selling Colleen Hoover novel from 2017. Now that’s range.
Set for release in early October, the movie (and the novel) is called Verity and it’s being directed by Michael Showalter – who also helmed The Big Sick and got a lovely performance out of Hathaway in the excellent 2024 rom-com The Idea of You. The plot for this one follows an out-of-work writer (Dakota Johnson) who comes into the alluring orbit of a hugely successful author (Hathaway) and her husband (Josh Hartnett). Get ready, this one could get spicy.
At time of writing, the only 2027 project on Hathaway’s docket is Alone at Dawn, an adaptation of a non-fiction book about John A. Chapman, who was awarded the U.S. Medal of Honour for his service in the War in Afghanistan.
With an exact release date yet to be set (shooting wrapped in February, so we can expect it next year), it’s unclear who Hathaway will play at this point, but we do know that Adam Driver will star as Chapman and that veteran director Ron Howard is at the tiller. If Howard’s recent output is anything to go by, we can expect this one to be in the same vein as Thirteen Lives – his underappreciated dramatisation of the 2018 Tham Luang cave rescue mission. More on this one as we get it.
