Mother Mary is now in theaters, and David Lowery’s latest film is already shaping up to be one of the more intriguing releases of the spring. Starring Anne Hathaway and Michaela Coel, the movie follows an iconic pop star whose long-buried wounds resurface when she reunites with her estranged best friend and former costume designer on the eve of her comeback performance.

The premise alone gives Mother Mary a rich, emotionally charged setup, but what makes it especially compelling is the creative team surrounding it. Hathaway leads the film as the title character, with Coel playing Sam Anselm, and the project also pulls in a stacked supporting cast that helps give the story even more texture.

Alongside the film’s release, fans can now stream the soundtrack Mother Mary: Greatest Hits, a seven-track collection that features the original songs performed by Hathaway. The album is also available to preorder on vinyl and CD, with physical copies expected to ship in May, giving the film’s musical side its own spotlight outside the movie itself.

That soundtrack rollout matters because Mother Mary is clearly aiming to be more than just a drama. It’s a pop-star story, a reunion story, and a movie about identity, art, and the emotional fallout that can follow success.

With David Lowery directing and A24 backing the release, the film feels designed to live both as a character piece and as a larger cultural moment. For audiences heading in for the music, the performances, or the emotional wreckage at the center of the story, Mother Mary looks ready to deliver on all fronts.
