Is ‘Hershey’ a True Story? The Real Milton and Kitty Hershey Behind Angel Studios’ Movie

Yes, mostly. Angel Studios’ Hershey, in theaters November 25, 2026, is built on the real life of Milton S. Hershey, the Pennsylvania candymaker who went broke before he got rich, and his wife Catherine, who everyone called Kitty. The Hershey true story is stranger and sadder than a chocolate-bar origin tale has any right to be, and the movie keeps most of it. It also adds a villain who never existed.

It carries them.
