Josh Hartnett, Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson sat down with Amazon for a rapid-fire Q&A game, where they shared thoughts on what makes a good book. As Hathaway explains, “Since ‘Verity’ is all about finishing a story, today we’re finishing a few sentences about the kinds of books we can’t put down.”
Johnson, meantime, is asked what “‘Verity’ will have you questioning?” Her reply: “Your sexuality.”
“Verity” features a twisted love triangle that begins after struggling writer Lowen Ashleigh (Johnson) is asked by Jeremy Crawford (Hartnett) to help finish a manuscript started by his now-comatose wife, the bestselling author Verity Crawford (Hathaway).
