Watch the trailer for Hamlet, an upcoming film adaptation based on the play by William Shakespeare. Hamlet stars Riz Ahmed, Morfydd Clark, Joe Alwyn, Sheeba Chaddha, Avijit Dutt, with Art Malik, and Timothy Spall.

Shakespeare’s most enduring tragedy is reimagined in a bold, modern adaptation set within London’s elite South Asian community. When Hamlet (Riz Ahmed) returns for his father’s funeral, he is stunned to discover his uncle Claudius is marrying his newly widowed mother. Visited by his father’s ghost, Hamlet learns his brutal murder was at the hands of Claudius - and spirals into a quest for vengeance that exposes the rot at the heart of the family’s empire and threatens his own sanity.

Hamlet is written by Michael Lesslie.

Hamlet, directed by Aneil Karia, opens in theaters on April 10, 2026.
