Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett recently made waves in Queens, N.Y., as they filmed scenes for the highly anticipated Colleen Hoover adaptation. Hathaway, known for her roles in “The Idea of You” and “The Princess Diaries,” is taking on the character of Verity Crawford, a renowned author who struggles to complete her latest novel after a life-changing car accident. On the other hand, Hartnett is portraying Jeremy Crawford, Verity’s husband, adding depth to the narrative.
During the filming on Feb. 27, Hathaway made a striking appearance in a semi-sheer white maxi dress with a stylish drop-waist belt and a cutout near the neck. Completing her look, the talented actress sported a chic short bob hairstyle and black sunglasses. Hartnett, on the other hand, exuded a casual yet sophisticated vibe in dark gray jeans, a navy sweater, and a copper-toned T-shirt peeking out underneath. His second ensemble included a navy blue suit paired with brown dress shoes and a gray polo sweater, showcasing his versatility as an actor.
While Dakota Johnson, cast as Lowen Ashleigh, was notably absent from the set, fans have been eagerly awaiting her portrayal in the psychosexual thriller directed by Michael Showalter. The film’s logline hints at a riveting plotline, where Lowen discovers a secret manuscript at the lavish Crawford estate, unraveling chilling truths about the family’s past. As she delves deeper into Verity’s writings, Lowen must determine if they are merely fiction or a foreboding warning from a disturbed mind.
