Hershey (2026)
The true story of an American dreamer.
Based on the life of Milton Hershey, founder of the iconic Hershey chocolate company. Milton's grit and determination to conquer the world of candy-making propel him from bankruptcy to monumental success, and the love of his life, Kitty, helps him build a legacy sweeter than any candy bar. But when Kitty falls ill, Milton’s wild optimism teeters on the edge of destruction, and she sparks an even bolder dream: to leave their fortune in the hands of America’s children in need.

What kind of watch this is
Hershey is a 2026 drama that trades the usual biopic gravitas for the specific, sticky optimism of a man who refused to let bankruptcy define his palate. Directed by Mark Waters, the film runs 110 minutes, a duration that feels exactly right for watching a single idea harden into a city. Finn Wittrock plays Milton as a force of nature, while Alexandra Daddario’s Kitty provides the necessary friction to keep his dreams from melting under the heat. It is a story about legacy that tastes less like history and more like a very expensive bar of chocolate.
