Oscar-winner Chloé Zhao’s next film “Hamnet” has landed at Focus Features with Steven Spielberg newly joining the project as a producer.
“Hamnet” is adapted from Maggie O’Farrell’s Shakespeare-era novel, which was published in 2020 and fictionalizes the life of the Bard’s son who died at a young age. As previously announced, Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal will star in “Hamnet” alongside Emily Watson and Joe Alwyn. Zhao wrote the screenplay with O’Farrell.
Focus will release ‘Hamnet’ in the U.S. on a yet-to-be-determined date, with Universal Pictures International handling the theatrical rollout in the rest of the world.
