While Anne Hathaway is famously a brunette, she’s willing to try out other hair colors for her various movie roles. That includes her part in “Mother Mary” which sees her with platinum blonde hair.
“The trailer for Hathaway’s upcoming film ‘Mother Mary’ dropped this morning, and there’s so much to unpackâincluding two hair transformations,” InStyle notes. “The beginning of the teaser sees Hathaway arrive at a house in the rain with medium-length, collar bone-grazing blonde hair. Her roots are super grown out, and her locks fall in stringy tendrils.”
Following that, “Hathaway’s character embodies her mega pop persona and she has the look to match. Her thin, slightly unkempt blonde hair is replaced with long, silky platinum-blonde strands. But that’s not all, leaning into full ’90s pop star mode, she also has dark brunette money pieces for some two-tone contrast. Her new hair is styled down and straight with a middle part.”
Check out the star’s blonde hair in the trailer below, but beware! It’s kind of creepy (the trailer, not the hair).
Things ‘Get Dark’ in ‘Mother Mary’
Hathaway may be slaying a lighter hair color for her part in “Mother Mary;” however, the movie itself gets quite dark.
“In the film, which releases in spring 2026, Anne plays pop star Mother Mary, who leaves her tour and reconnects with her old friend and former costume designer Sam Anselm (Michaela Coel), as she commissions her designs for her comeback performance,” E! News explains.
While that seems nice at first, “things appear to get dark, as their rekindled relationship opens old wounds.” Oh my!
Anne Has Previously Tried Being a Blonde
If you saw Hathaway in the 2023 film “Eileen,” then you’ll know that her character had blonde hair. For that role, the star wore a wig.
“But it was more than just a hairpiece,” according to Today. “Hathaway says the wig had to work in tandem with the ’60s-set story, following a woman in her 20s, Eileen (Thomasin McKenzie), who becomes obsessed with her new co-worker, Hathaway’s Rebecca.”
Hathaway noted, “It was such a heightened performance, and (Rebecca) is a really grand character, and I knew that if the wig looked âwiggy,â then it would kind of undo everything,”
She also showed up with blonde hair in 2019’s “Serenity,” telling W, âI felt funnier! I donât know why, but I just felt that I could be funnier while saying less. I know that doesnât make any sense, but it was justâitâs nice. And it also made me want to do it more in life, like, just mess around with [my hair] and not get too fixed on anything.â
GettyThat’s not to mention her blonde crop hairstyle that she wore to the 2013 Met Ball. At the time, Cosmopolitan asserted, “to be perfectly honest, we’re kind of in love with the look on her.”
