Tessa Thompson stars in one of the most complex and iconic roles ever written for the stage, as Hedda takes on a contemporary adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's masterpiece Hedda Gabler. Directed by Nia DaCosta, the film reimagines the 1891 drama for a modern world of desire, pressure, and inner turmoil. Thompson's performance is multilayered — a woman caught between the past she can't let go of and the present that slowly stabs her to death. A frustrating experience when all is said and done, only partially redeemed by its attention-grabbing imagery, airless atmosphere, and powerful concerns of control and identity, Hedda remains a psychological drama you won't easily forget.
