Anne Hathaway sees major box office success and critical interest

Anne Hathaway has experienced a highly productive year in 2026, appearing in several major films. According to Box Office Mojo, her projects including ‘The Odyssey’, ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’, ‘The End of Oak Street’, and ‘Verity’ have all surpassed the $100 million mark globally, with ‘The Odyssey’ earning approximately $1.78 billion.

Amidst this commercial success, the 2023 psychological thriller ‘Eileen’ is being highlighted as a notable work that received less mainstream attention. Directed by William Oldroyd and based on the novel by Ottessa Moshfegh, the film stars Hathaway and Thomasin McKenzie. The story follows Eileen Dunlop, an introverted secretary at a youth prison in 1964 Massachusetts.

This period of success follows a previous era in Hathaway’s career marked by intense social media scrutiny and public criticism, often referred to as the ‘Hathahaters’ phenomenon, which emerged following her Oscar win for ‘Les Misérables’ in 2013.
