‘Verity’ Review: Dakota Johnson And Anne Hathaway Play Authors In Psychological Thriller But Are They Really Alter Egos For Colleen Hoover?

Dakota Johnson and Anne Hathaway star in the film adaptation of Verity, a psychological thriller written by best-selling novelist Colleen Hoover. Directed by Michael Showalter, the plot follows an obscure author hired to ghostwrite for a catatonic literary phenomenon. While some reviews describe the mystery as fun and frigid, others criticize the production as listless or a failed mystery. This project marks the fourth adaptation of Hoover's work, exploring the narratives people construct about others.
