Ahead of its debut at the 2026 Toronto International Film Festival, Apple TV has dropped the teaser trailer for Being Heumann, the latest film from Academy Award winning CODA director Sian Heder.
Chronicling the story of iconic Disability Rights Activist Judith Heumann, played by Doctor Who actor Ruth Madeley, Being Heumann also stars Mark Ruffalo, Dylan O’Brien, Madeline Delp, Rob Delaney, and Ray Fisher. Check out the poster and trailer below…
“Based on a True Story. Scrappy, defiant, and done being treated like a burden, Judy Heumann turns her outrage into a revolution. In 1977, she and more than 100 disability rights protestors send a very loud message: The system is broken—not us.”
Being Heumann is in select theaters on November 6th, before streaming on Apple TV from November 13th.
