The movie follows the complex relationship between a pop star and a fashion designer, with n impressive cast including Alba Baptista, Hunter Schafer, Jessica Brown Findlay, and Michaela Coel.
The first image, shared by Vanity Fair, showcases Hathaway in a backstage setting wearing a striking golden leotard, cloak, and tiara. While details about the film remain scarce, Hathaway shared insights into the challenge of portraying a pop star, admitting:
“I can’t dance. I can’t sing like a pop star. They made it so that I could”.

Directed by Lowery, whose The Green Knight and A Ghost Story were critically lauded, Mother Mary is expected to deliver a unique and artistic take on fame, creativity, and relationships.
Set for release by A24, Mother Mary continues Hathaway’s streak of bold, versatile roles, following her turn in The Idea of You.

Hathaway’s dedication to stepping outside her comfort zone only adds to the excitement surrounding this project.
Fans of the actress and A24’s signature style should keep Mother Mary on their radar—it’s shaping up to be a cinematic event that blends glitz, grit, and emotional depth.
