Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy (Olivia Colman) and Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch): successful careers, a loving marriage, great kids. But beneath the façade of their supposed ideal life, a storm is brewing - as Theo’s career nosedives while Ivy’s own ambitions take off, a tinderbox of fierce competition and hidden resentment ignites. THE ROSES is a reimagining of the 1989 classic film The War of the Roses, based on the novel by Warren Adler.
Directed by filmmaker Jay Roach (Bombshell, Meet the Parents), THE ROSES stars Academy Award® and Emmy® winner Olivia Colman (The Favourite, ‘The Crown’) and Academy Award® nominee Benedict Cumberbatch (The Power of the Dog, ‘Sherlock’) as the feuding couple at the heart of the film, with Emmy® winner Andy Samberg (Palm Springs, ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine'), Academy Award® winner Allison Janney (I, Tonya), Belinda Bromilow (‘The Great’), Ncuti Gatwa (‘Doctor Who’), Sunita Mani (‘Glow’), Zoë Chao (Nightbitch), Jamie Demetriou (‘Stath Lets Flat’),and multi-Emmy® winner Kate McKinnon (Barbie, Bombshell) rounding out the cast.
