2026 has had many skins shed, and James McAvoy and Erin Doherty are following suit. To don their new capes, McAvoy and Doherty move past their respective onscreen telepathic and psychological powers.

Paul Andrew Williams has now shifted his lens to a more hopeful focus on the supernormal. With James McAvoy and Erin Doherty, Williams is currently in the midst of spinning a supernatural drama called Faith, as per Variety.

While Williams and McAvoy match accolades as each a BAFTA winner, Doherty follows with her own recent Golden Globe success. James McAvoy is a two-time BAFTA Scotland winner for Best Actor, and Doherty brings her Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role on Television Award to Faith.

Currently under production and shooting in the UK, as per Variety, there is no hint of a release as of January 2026. The film is set to be represented by Bankside Films and Logical for international sales, as well.

The name of said film gives away plenty to believe in.

What is James McAvoy and Erin Doherty's Faith about?

Faith is going to focus on a fictional, yet reality-reminiscent tale of a steadfast single mother. Her life's meaning, however, begins to shift after her encounter with a strange man. James McAvoy and Erin Doherty take on the roles of the stranger and Gina, the mother, respectively.

Paul Andrew Williams, on the other hand, holds ample expertise in helming the field of paranormal cinema. Bull, The Cottage, and The Cherry Tree Lane all create intrigue around his portrayal of this perspective on the supernatural.

With Erin Doherty and James McAvoy's acclaimed performances, Faith is studded with experts, if not stars. Paul Andrew Williams is now set to dive for the angels in the details with this number.
