Sony Pictures has released a new trailer for ‘Verity,’ the upcoming psychological thriller adapted from Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel.

Directed by Michael Showalter, ‘Verity’ follows Lowen Ashleigh (Dakota Johnson), a struggling writer who is given the opportunity of a lifetime when she is hired to ghostwrite for renowned author Verity Crawford (Anne Hathaway).

Lowen relocates to the remote Crawford estate, where she begins working on the unfinished books of the celebrated author. But as she settles into the house, Lowen makes a disturbing discovery: what appears to be Verity’s autobiographical notes, filled with chilling and deeply unsettling confessions about her husband Jeremy (Josh Hartnett).

As Lowen reads further into Verity’s private writings, the boundaries between fact and fiction begin to blur. What initially appears to be an extraordinary opportunity soon becomes something far more dangerous, as Lowen finds herself caught between manipulation and attraction, reality and fiction, and opportunity and obsession.

Lowen is drawn deeper into the Crawford family’s secrets. As the revelations pile up, she must question just how much of Verity’s story she can believe and whether uncovering the truth could ultimately put her in danger.

The film is directed by Michael Showalter and stars Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, Josh Hartnett, Ismael Cruz Cordova and Brady Wagner.
