My Mom Jayne, a documentary about the late Jayne Mansfield by her daughter, Law & Order: SVU star Mariska Hargitay, premieres on streaming on Max this week.

Directed and produced by Hargitay, My Mom Jayne made its world premiere at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival in May. The official summary for the documentary reads in part, “In her feature film directorial debut — and the first time she has delved into her mother Jayne Mansfield’s story — Mariska Hargitay searches for the mother she never knew almost six decades after the Hollywood legend’s tragic death.

“Through intimate interviews and an extensive collection of never-before-seen photos and home movies, she grapples with her mother’s complicated public and private legacy, uncovering the surprising layers and depth of who Jayne was, not only to her fans, but also to those closest to her.”

The official summary for My Mom Jayne from Max also reads that Mariska Hargitay “was three years old when her mother, Jayne Mansfield, tragically died in a car accident at the age of 34 — leaving behind five children.

“The film follows Mariska as she seeks to answer her long-held questions about her mother and integrate the truths she uncovers into her own sense of self. As she explores the complexities behind who Jayne Mansfield was in public, she reckons with the persona that Jayne created, but was later desperate to escape.”
