Headline: London Premiere Of 'The Testament of Ann Lee'
Caption: Interviews for The Testament of Ann Lee at the UK Premiere. The film stars Amanda Seyfried, Thomasin McKenzie, Lewis Pullman, Stacy Martin, Tim Blake Nelson, and Christopher Abbott. It was directed by Mona Fastvold who co-wrote with Brady Corbet. Colin Hart and Madison Hart were on the red carpet. Plot: The Testament of Ann Lee tells the extraordinary true story of Ann Lee, the charismatic founder of the Shakers, a radical devotional movement built on equality, communal living and spiritual devotion. Preaching gender and social equality in a deeply divided era, Lee was revered by her followers and feared by those who viewed her beliefs as dangerous heresy. As persecution mounts, she attempts to build a utopian society driven by faith, vision and collective devotion. The film leans boldly into musical expression, featuring more than a dozen traditional Shaker hymns reimagined as ecstatic, cinematic movements, with choreography by Celia Rowlson-Hall and an original score and songs by Daniel Blumberg. The film will be released in UK cinemas on 20th February 2026.
