Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley are in a brand new movie called Hamnet — and you can see it early! The film follows the relationship between William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal) and his wife Agnes (Jessie Buckley) after an unthinkable tragedy changes their lives. It's emotional, gripping, and absolutely beautiful. And it's one of my most-anticipated movies of the year!

What is the story of the Hamnet?
The movie follows William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes after a family tragedy changes their lives. But in addition to navigating a new and unexpected phase of their relationship, the change also prompts Shakespeare to create what's arguably his most iconic work: Hamlet.

Focus Features
Hamnet seems to be more about emotion than super spicy moments, but IMDb does note the movie is rated PG-13 for "thematic content, some strong sexuality, and partial nudity."
