MUBI will release Die My Love, the latest feature from director Lynne Ramsay, in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on 14 November. The release follows the film’s World Premiere earlier this year at the Cannes Film Festival. Known for her psychologically charged and emotionally exacting work, Ramsay directs a cast led by Jennifer Lawrence, alongside Robert Pattinson, LaKeith Stanfield, Nick Nolte, and Sissy Spacek.

Set in rural America, Die My Love explores the unraveling of a woman consumed by emotional extremes. Ramsay draws from her signature cinematic tension to frame a character study steeped in intensity. Jennifer Lawrence takes on the central role, portraying a woman whose overwhelming attachment to love spirals into a psychological tailspin. Her performance anchors a narrative that refuses to ease into sentimentality, instead pushing forward with sharp shifts between intimacy and chaos.
The film builds around Ramsay’s interest in emotional rawness and unpredictability. Lawrence appears opposite Robert Pattinson, LaKeith Stanfield, and two Hollywood veterans: Nick Nolte and Sissy Spacek. Together, the cast deepens the emotional stakes with performances that never settle into comfort. Ramsay’s direction favors unfiltered expression, allowing vulnerability, conflict, and confusion to share the screen without resolution.
In her statement about the film, Ramsay explained her focus. “I aimed to keep it grounded, human, spontaneous and funny at times, capturing the moments that feel small but carry a lot of weight,” she said. “This film is for anyone who’s ever been in a relationship – there’s heartbreak and beauty in vulnerability.” Her approach leans into contradictions without smoothing them out. Her camera lingers where discomfort begins, where characters shift in their need for connection and release.
Lynne Ramsay’s filmography includes You Were Never Really Here (2017), awarded at Cannes and BAFTA-nominated, and We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011), which earned her a BAFTA nomination and a BIFA win. Earlier works like Morvern Callar (2002) and Ratcatcher (1999) received Cannes recognition and BAFTA honors. She also directed the BAFTA-winning short Swimmer (2012) and Brigitte (2019) for Miu Miu’s Women’s Tales at Venice.
The November release of the film in the UK and Ireland positions it as one of the season’s most uncompromising cinematic experiences. MUBI’s distribution ensures a wide theatrical run following its Cannes debut, building anticipation for what promises to be one of Ramsay’s most emotionally charged works.
