From Academy Award-winning writer/director Chloé Zhao (Nomadland, The Rider), Hamnet tells the powerful story of love and loss that inspired the creation of Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece, Hamlet. Featuring Paul Mescal (Aftersun, All of Us Strangers) as William Shakespeare and Jessie Buckley (I’m Thinking of Ending Things) as his wife Agnes. Inspired by the bestselling novel of the same name by Maggie O’Farrell.

"Hamnet is so emotionally raw as to be almost excruciating at times, featuring a heroic performance from Jessie Buckley as Shakespeare’s wife and the mother of his children — although as presented, she could be the mother of us all."
"In Hamnet... the two always go hand in hand: joy and fear, love and loss. One feeds into the other in a cycle as old as life itself, and unavoidable. But just as her William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal) turns the pain of being caught between the two into the masterpiece that is Hamlet, Zhao harnesses those elements into something gorgeous and cathartic."
