Verity Trailer: Colleen Hoover's Psychological Thriller

It's April 28th. Entertainment and celebrity news today starts now, AI-powered and Spotlight

Ready.

I'm Corey with The Story.

Amazon MGM Studios just dropped the first teaser for Variety, the new psychological

thriller based on Colleen Hoover's novel.

Directed by Michael Schowalter, it stars Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, and Josh Hartnet.

This one hits theaters on October 2nd and it's flipping the script on those usual Hoover

tear jerkers.

Unlike it ends with us or reminders of him, which dive deep into heartbreak, Variety

goes full fever dream with hyper stylized visuals and straight up.

Sinister vibes.

The trailer starts cozy, but swerves into terror, playing with romance that turns deadly.

Fans are buzzing about the ambiguity, questioning who's the real villain or victim.

It's got that slippery tension where nothing feels reliable, pulling you into the mind games

right away.

The story follows struggling writer Loan, played by Johnson, who steps in to finish a book

series for Hartnet's character after his variety.

Hathaway's role gets hurt.

She uncovers a manuscript that exposes some dark family secrets.

Hathaway's eerie presence anchors it all, blending campy thrills with real horror edge.

If the full movie delivers on this tease, it could redefine Hoover adaptations for good.
