Dir: Chloé Zhao 2025 | 126 minsBased on Maggie O’Farrell’s award-winning novel, Hamnet tells the powerful story of love and loss that inspired the creation of Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece, Hamlet.
Nominated in eight categories at this year's Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress in a Leading Role: Jessie Buckley and Best Adapted Screenplay.
1580 England. Impoverished Latin tutor William Shakespeare meets free-spirited Agnes, and the pair, captivated by one another, strike up a torrid affair that leads to marriage and three children.
Yet as Will pursues a budding theatre career in far-away London, Agnes anchors the domestic sphere alone. When tragedy strikes, the couple’s once-unshakable bond is tested, but their shared experience sets the stage for the creation of Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece, Hamlet.
Hamnet is a sensitively observed, magnificently crafted tale about the complexities of love and the healing power of art and creativity.
From Academy Award winning writer / director Chloé Zhao (Nomadland, The Rider). Starring Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Emily Watson and Joe Alwyn - and music by Max Richter.
