The last time we saw Milly Alcock’s Kara Zor-El, she came crashing into the Fortress of Solitude during James Gunn’s Superman, looking like she’d just had herself a mighty good weekend, wondering why her cousin had moved the door. It was a charming, offbeat way to introduce Supergirl, and it set the stage for a fresh approach to how one of the mightiest superheroines out there was going to be depicted. We learn that Supergirl likes to party on planets with red suns,

“Hamnet” Composer Max Richter on the Song That Gave Director Chloé Zhao an Epiphany to Rewrite the Film’s Ending

The bard and his muses live again. Director Chloé Zhao’s Hamnet, the film adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s award-winning 2020 historical novel, is enrapturing audiences in theaters now. Zhao both co-wrote the screenplay with O’Farrell and co-edited the film, which follows the passionate but complicated relationship between a young scribe named William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal) and his incandescent wife, Agnes (a phenomenal Jessie Buckley). It is a story loosely based on what is known of Shakespeare’s life.

Chloé Zhao’s period drama Hamnet follows a spirited young couple in 16th-century England — the earthy, radiant Agnes (a superb Jessie Buckley) and her besotted, occasionally brooding husband Will (an also excellent Paul Mescal), who channels his own formidable gifts onto the page (and becomes, of course, the Bard).
