Mary is a 2024 epic biblical drama film directed by D. J. Caruso from a screenplay by Timothy Michael Hayes.

The film also stars Ido Tako, Ori Pfeffer, Hilla Vidor, Dudley O'Shaughnessy, and Anthony Hopkins.

A co-production of the United States and the United Kingdom, the film was released on Netflix on December 6, 2024.
