Searchlight Pictures has released the official trailer for the upcoming historical musical drama, THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE, which will be released in UK cinemas on 20th February 2026.
From award-winning writer-director Mona Fastvold (The World to Come, The Brutalist) comes the extraordinary true legend of Ann Lee, founder of the devotional sect known as the Shakers.
Academy Award nominee Amanda Seyfried stars as the Shakers’ irrepressible leader, who preached gender and social equality and was revered by her followers.
THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE captures the ecstasy and torment of her quest to build a utopia, featuring more than a dozen traditional Shaker hymns, now reimagined with choreography by Celia Rowlson-Hall (Vox Lux) and original songs & score by Academy Award winner Daniel Blumberg (The Brutalist).
The film co-stars Thomasin McKenzie, Lewis Pullman, Stacy Martin, Tim Blake Nelson, and Christopher Abbott.
