Anne Hathaway + FKA twigs on ‘Keeping It Snatched,’ ‘Mother Mary’ & ‘Total Feeling’ in Dance
Anne Hathaway’s big summer starts now: The Oscar-winning actress sat down with Popcast to talk about the three very different movies she has scheduled for release in the next few months, with five in all coming before the end of 2026.
First up is “Mother Mary,” from the director David Lowery, in which Hathaway plays a Taylor Swift-Lady Gaga hybrid pop star going through a dark period (with songs written and produced by Charli XCX, Jack Antonoff and FKA twigs). After that comes “The Devil Wears Prada 2,” in which she returns as Andy, followed by Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey,” in which she plays Penelope, Queen of Ithaca.
In a wide-ranging conversation with the Popcast hosts Jon Caramanica and Joe Coscarelli of The New York Times, Hathaway discusses her brief foray into pop stardom, the influence and impact of Taylor Swift and learning to enjoy her “Mother” Era after years of difficult-to-navigate public backlash.
