The film's synopsis continues: "There, she must readjust to the complicated life she left behind and face the next chapter without the career that gave her fame, fortune and, most importantly, identity."

Goldstein also recently premiered another new movie, All of You, at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The film stars Goldstein alongside Outer Range's Imogen Poots, with William Bridges directing. It has been touted as a "stirring new-futuristic drama".

The Mother has become one of Netflix's 10 most-watched movies of all time and was its most-watched movie of 2023.
