Actor Josh Hartnett shared an amusing anecdote about his goddaughter's reaction to his role in the upcoming film 'Verity.' His goddaughter, then 12, expressed disbelief that Hartnett would play the character Jeremy, stating he seemed "a thousand years old" for the part.
She humorously suggested that actors like Timothée Chalamet would be more appropriate. Hartnett, however, pointed out that the character Jeremy was written to be in his 40s, a suitable age for him.
'Verity' is an American psychological erotic thriller directed by Michael Showalter and based on Colleen Hoover's novel. The film, which also stars Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson, is scheduled for release on October 2, 2026.
The plot centers on writer Lowen Ashleigh, who is tasked by Jeremy Crawford to complete the book series of his injured wife, Verity. While working, Lowen uncovers a manuscript that raises disturbing questions about Verity.
