Struggling writer Lowen Ashleigh (Dakota Johnson) is offered an extraordinary opportunity when Jeremy Crawford (Josh Hartnett) approaches her to complete a successful series of novels written by his wife, bestselling author Verity Crawford (Anne Hathaway). Following a devastating accident that has left Verity unable to continue her work, Lowen agrees to temporarily relocate to the family's secluded estate, where she can examine the author's extensive collection of notes and unfinished manuscripts.

Initially captivated by the luxurious surroundings and the prospect of reviving her struggling career, Lowen soon discovers that the Crawford household is concealing deeply unsettling secrets. Among Verity's papers, she uncovers what appears to be an autobiographical manuscript containing shocking confessions about the family's troubled past, revealing disturbing events that cast an entirely different light on the celebrated novelist.

As Lowen becomes increasingly absorbed in the manuscript, her growing attraction to Jeremy further complicates an already dangerous situation. Strange occurrences within the house begin to undermine her confidence, leaving her questioning Verity's condition, Jeremy's intentions and the reliability of the disturbing revelations she has discovered.

Caught between professional ambition, forbidden desire and mounting suspicion, Lowen finds herself drawn into a psychological nightmare in which the boundaries between truth and fiction become increasingly difficult to distinguish. With every new discovery, the possibility that someone is manipulating events becomes more terrifying.

Directed by Michael Showalter and adapted from Colleen Hoover's bestselling novel, Verity is a dark psychological thriller exploring obsession, deception, grief and the dangerous consequences of uncovering secrets that were never intended to be revealed.

Verity is released on DVD and Blu-ray 14th December 2026 from Amazon MGM Studios.
