On April 8th, David Lowry's new flick, Mother Mary, drops in theaters, April 17th, and hat the way Lee's as a troubled pop star, chasing a massive comeback show, leaning on her old friend played by Michaela Kool for support. The cast stays stacked with Hunter Schaeffer, Kaya Gerber, FK8 Twigs, and others like she and Clifford. Soundtrack hits Hard 2, crafted fresh by Charlie XCX, Jack Antonoff, and Twigs to match that pop-world vibe. Lowry pulled big inspo from Taylor Swift's career. He broke down shots from her reputation tour to figure budgets for their stadium scenes, keeping costs low without skimping on spectacle. After wrapping, Hathaway hooked Lowry up with a beaded bracelet like Swift's, spelling out anti-hero from her midnight's album. Both hit up the Ares tour in Europe, and Lowry pictured Hathaway's character as Taylor, 10 or 15 years ahead, that Swift energy clearly fueled the whole project. Turning Mother Mary into a pop-evic, worth-watching, that's the story for today.
