Dakota Johnson Pushes Anne Hathaway to Confess in a Spine-chilling Clip From Verity

Verity is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated releases of October. Starring Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson in the lead, the film is an adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel of the same name. While the trailers have already offered audiences a glimpse into the film’s dark, twisted dynamics, director Michael Showalter has now released two new clips that further tease the intense chemistry and layered relationship between the two actresses in the film.
The newly released footage adds another layer of intrigue to the highly anticipated psychological thriller, giving fans a closer look at the compelling dynamic between Hathaway and Johnson and hinting at the tension that lies at the heart of the story.
The first clip introduces Dakota Johnson’s character as she meets Anne Hathaway’s Verity for the first time, offering audiences a glimpse into the intriguing dynamic between the two characters. The second clip turns up the tension, as Dakota engages Verity in an intense conversation, attempting to provoke her into admitting that she has been faking her condition. Packed with suspense and an increasingly charged exchange between the two actresses, the scene takes the anticipation for the psychological thriller up another notch.
Watch the clips below:

Adapted from Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel, this seductive, psychological thriller follows renowned author Verity Crawford (Anne Hathaway) and Lowen Ashleigh (Dakota Johnson), a struggling writer who relocates to the remote Crawford estate to ghostwrite for Verity. After Lowen uncovers what appears to be Verity’s chilling autobiographical notes, she wrestles with the disturbing and twisted confessions about Verity’s husband Jeremy (Josh Hartnett), and finds it hard to separate fiction from reality, manipulation from attraction, and opportunity from obsession.
The film is directed by Michael Showalter. Produced by Amazon MGM Studios and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing International, Verity is slated to release in India on 2nd October 2026, in cinemas only.

When Balakrishna Met Geopolitics: Iran Embassy Shares Bhagavanth Kesari Action Scene

When Balakrishna Met Geopolitics: Iran Embassy Shares Bhagavanth Kesari Action Scene

When Donald Trump mused online about either striking a deal with Iran or quickly annihilating it, the diplomatic response was entirely unexpected. The Embassy of Iran in Zimbabwe chose to reply not with a traditional statement, but with a high-octane clip from Indian action cinema.

The embassy shared a tense sequence from the blockbuster Telugu film Bhagavanth Kesari on X. In the scene, the heroic protagonist, played by Nandamuri Balakrishna, single-handedly fends off a hail of bullets from hostile forces before delivering a signature punch dialogue. In its accompanying text, the embassy claimed that Iranian officials had recently shifted their viewing habits from Hollywood to Indian cinema. They added that Trump ought to know that Iran is far from defenceless. While the post mistakenly tagged the Telugu film as a Bollywood project, the cultural reference struck a chord across social media.

Surreal collab

Online users reacted with delight and irony at the surreal geopolitical crossover. Comments like “Tollywood was not prepared for this collab” and “Balayya goes global” flooded the platform. Indian cinema fans were surprised to see a mass action hero, who also happens to be a legislator from the state of Andhra Pradesh, cited as a metaphor for defence capabilities. Balakrishna is known for his high-voltage punchlines and swagger in action-heavy titles such as Legend, Simha, Akhanda, and Daaku Maharaj.

Other movie references by the Embassy’s handle

This incident is not an isolated experiment for the Iranian Embassy’s social media team. The account has frequently deployed pop-culture tropes to deliver political commentary. In recent months, they compared international figures to Marvel villains Thanos and Ebony Maw, posted about tactical reality using Hollywood tropes, and framed diplomatic tensions through references to Gladiator.

Meanwhile, Balakrishna is acting in Dada, a mass-action entertainer co-starring Manchu Manoj and Kajal Aggarwal. The film is slated for a Christmas 2026 release.
