Plot
A written prologue states that in Stratford, England, "Hamnet" and "Hamlet" were considered the same name.[7]
William Shakespeare works as a tutor to help pay his family's debt. He leaves his students after seeing Agnes Hathaway practicing falconry, and they share a moment before he leaves. Shakespeare's mother, Mary, tells him that rumours persist of Agnes being the daughter of a forest witch. Shakespeare visits Agnes in the forest, where she asks him for a story. He recounts the legend of Orpheus and Eurydice, delighting her. Agnes palmreads Shakespeare, foretelling a successful future for him and two children at her deathbed. The pair consummate their relationship, impregnating Agnes, leading her family to disown her and forcing her to move in with Shakespeare. The pair marry, and Agnes gives birth to Susanna in the woods.
Shakespeare fights back when his father, John, beats him for rejecting manual labour. Seeing Shakespeare's frustration with writing, Agnes suggests to her brother Bartholomew to send him to London for a theatrical career, leaving her and Susanna in Stratford. Agnes tries to go outside to give birth, but Shakespeare's family restrain her in the house, where she gives birth to twins Hamnet and Judith, the latter appearing stillborn. Remembering the death of her mother, Agnes demands to hold the baby despite superstition, and Judith awakes. Shakespeare, now successful, returns intermittently and the children grow up very close. Agnes foretells Hamnet, who wishes to join his father's theatre company, will flourish. Agnes' hawk dies and is buried; she tells the children to make a wish to the hawk's spirit, who she says will carry them in its heart.
Returning to London, Shakespeare wanders through the streets during an outbreak of bubonic plague. In Stratford, Judith contracts the plague, but Hamnet evokes the tale of the hawk to encourage her. Later, Hamnet lies beside her, proclaiming he wants to take her place. Judith recovers, but Hamnet falls gravely ill and dies; on his deathbed, he envisions himself on a stage calling for his mother, and Agnes' hawk appears. Shakespeare rushes home to see Judith, but is distraught to find Hamnet lying in repose. His absence strains his marriage to Agnes as they cope with Hamnet's death. Shakespeare buys the largest house in Stratford and departs for London again. Agnes holds his hand and says she now sees nothing. Shakespeare rehearses Hamlet in London, but is frustrated with his cast for not showing passion. In despair, he lean over the edge of a jetty on the River Thames and recites his "To be, or not to be" speech from the play.
Joan, Agnes' stepmother, shows her a playbill for a production of Hamlet in London and upbraids her for marrying Shakespeare, but Agnes rebukes her. Agnes and Bartholomew travel to London to see Shakespeare. Finding him absent from his home, they resolve to attend the first performance of Hamlet at the Globe Theatre. Initially offended, thinking her son's name is being profaned, upon seeing Shakespeare in the role of the ghost of Hamlet's father she realises that the play is a tribute to Hamnet, and is moved to tears by the scene between Hamlet and his father.
Backstage, Shakespeare, having noticed Agnes, breaks down in tears while listening to the play and returns to see her from the wings. The play progresses through scenes of swordfighting, fulfilling Hamnet's dream for an action role. During the scene when Hamlet dies, Agnes reaches forward to hold the actor's hand, and the audience reach out towards him in turn. She envisions Hamnet on the stage, seen earlier as his dying vision, now moving from sadness to a smile and disappears into the theatre. For the first time since Hamnet's death, Agnes laughs and smiles.

Production
A stage production of Maggie O'Farrell's novel was announced in November 2022,[8] with the film rights having been acquired prior to publication by London-based Liza Marshall and her company Hera Pictures, who then partnered with Neal Street Productions.[9] In April 2023, Chloé Zhao was hired to direct the film, and would write the screenplay alongside O'Farrell.[10]
In May 2023, Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley entered negotiations to star in the film.[11] Mescal confirmed in a January 2024 interview that he and Buckley would star.[12]
Principal photography was originally scheduled to begin in London on 3 June 2024.[13] Production instead began in Wales on 29 July 2024, and wrapped on 30 September. While most of the film was shot in Herefordshire, England, including the village of Weobley, scenes were also filmed in London at the Charterhouse, which served as the largest London location for the production.[14][15] The scenes set at the Globe Theatre were shot at a replica of the building constructed by production designer Fiona Crombie at Elstree Studios backlot, rather than at Shakespeare's Globe (which Zhao and Crombrie felt was too ornate for the film).[16][17][18] Joe Alwyn and Emily Watson were added to the cast in August, and Steven Spielberg joined the film as a producer.[19] Łukasz Żal was the cinematographer[20] and Max Richter the film's composer,[21] whose 2004 track "On the Nature of Daylight" is also used in the film.[22]
Literary references
In addition to adapting O'Farrell's book, the film repeatedly quotes from the Old English Nine Herbs Charm, an alliterative spell (galdor) from Anglo-Saxon England. The film quotes from two translations of the text: one from philologist Joseph S. Hopkins and another from Stephen Pollington. Regarding the use of his translation in the film, Hopkins says "It is a great joy to play a role in presenting the Nine Plants Spell to such a large audience in the contemporary period, surely providing the most exposure the spell has received since Anglo-Saxon England".[23]
Release
Focus Features acquired worldwide rights to Hamnet in August 2024, with its parent company Universal Pictures handling its international distribution; Indian distribution rights were acquired by Reliance Entertainment in December 2025 under a pre-existing output deal with Amblin Entertainment.[19][24] It had its world premiere at the 52nd Telluride Film Festival on 29 August 2025.[25] In July 2025, the film was announced as part of the Gala Presentations lineup of the 50th 2025 Toronto International Film Festival,[26][27] where it won the prestigious People's Choice Award.[28] It was screened in the non-competitive section 'Grand public' of the 20th Rome Film Festival in October 2025 before its theatrical release,[29] in the official selection of the 70th Valladolid International Film Festival on 27 October 2025 (for its Spanish premiere),[30] and closed the 38th Tokyo International Film Festival on 5 November 2025.[31]
The film received a limited theatrical release in the United States on 26 November 2025, ahead of a wide release one week later on 5 December 2025.[32] It would later be released in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2026, and in Australia on 15 January.[33] As of January 24, 2026, screening expanded to a total of 1,276 theaters and ranked #10 at the box office with $1.8 million for a domestic total approaching $18 million.[34]
Reception

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 86% of 309 critics' reviews are positive. The website's consensus reads: "Breaking hearts and mending them in one fell swoop, Hamnet speculates on the inspiration behind Shakespeare's masterpiece with palpable emotional force thanks to Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal's astonishing performances."[35] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 84 out of 100, based on 54 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[36]
Buckley's performance in particular was widely praised. David Fear of Rolling Stone opined that people "will be talking about Jessie Buckley’s performance for years".[37] Screen Daily's Tim Grierson thought Mescal's role was similar to his previous work but "the regularly superb Buckley is revelatory as a wild creature who experiences the exhilaration of motherhood as well as the heartbreak of loss."[38] Johnny Oleksinski at the New York Post wrote that "it's Buckley who's giving one of those rare turns that simply beggars belief. She swings back and forth from cast iron to porcelain. The actress is thunderous, playful, grounded and ethereal."[39] Peter Debruge of Variety declared the film to be "so emotionally raw as to be almost excruciating at times" "featuring a heroic performance from Jessie Buckley".[40]
Bilge Ebiri of Vulture described Hamnet as "devastating, maybe the most emotionally shattering movie I've seen in years".[41] Angie Han of The Hollywood Reporter summed the film in the bottom line as "a tremendously acted heartbreaker".[42] Pete Hammond of Deadline Hollywood wrote that Hamnet, "with its quiet determination to say much about how art is affected by life, is unlike anything else".[43] David Ehrlich of IndieWire affirms that with Hamnet, "it would be hard to imagine a more fitting tribute to Shakespeare's most widely interpreted play." On the performances, Ehrlich notes that the character of Agnes is not built on tropes but is "anchored by the primordial rawness of Buckley’s astonishing performance." Whereas on Mescal's performance he found it to be "cathartically transcendent, because it at last rewards that search... as Will starts looking for his son in the space between life and death."[44]
Richard Lawson in The Guardian gave it four stars, calling it a "poignant adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s 2020 novel with a stirring tearjerker ending".[33] BBC film critics Nicholas Barber and Caryn James deemed the movie to be the best of 2025 thanks to its rich and emotionally touching characters, its themes and its imagery.[45] On the contrary, The Wall Street Journal's Kyle Smith called it a "quintessential Oscar bait (highbrow foundation; maximal crying and emoting) but is dogged by intellectual anachronism."[46]
