Fans have been eagerly discussing the film's potential, with reactions ranging from excitement to playful surprise.
One wrote, "that wasn't on my bingo card but love it ❤️."
Another commented, "I can't wait for the Year of Hathaway."
Hathaway herself reflected on the challenge of stepping into the role.
"If I got the part, I would have to become material David could craft with…I had to submit to being a beginner. The humility of that—showing up every day knowing you're going to suck. And it has to be okay. You're not 'bad.' You're just a beginner," she said in an interview with Vogue. Her dedication involved additional vocal and dance training to fully embody the diva persona.
Behind the Scenes Drama
The filming process for Mother Mary was reportedly intense. Director Lowery likened the production to the making of Apocalypse Now, one of Hollywood's most challenging shoots.
He shared with Vogue that Hathaway experienced a moment of emotional strain, saying, "At one point Annie broke down and said, 'I have to apologize, because I think what's going to come out of me will hurt you.' And [co-star] Michaela [Coel] took her hands and said, 'I love you, I trust you.'"
Despite the challenges, Hathaway embraced the experience, demonstrating her commitment to her craft. The actress has a history of taking on transformative roles, from her breakout in The Princess Diaries to critically acclaimed performances in Brokeback Mountain and The Devil Wears Prada.
Mother Mary is generating buzz not just for its star-studded cast, but also for its unique premise. The film explores the friendship between a pop icon and a fashion designer, featuring a predominantly female cast including Hunter Schafer, Atheena Frizzell, Jessica Brown Findlay, and Kaia Gerber.
While the teaser will drop tomorrow, the full movie is slated to hit theaters in April 2026.As anticipation builds, the teaser release promises to offer a first glimpse into Hathaway's transformative performance and the stylish, music-filled world of Mother Mary.
