The film is set to be released in cinemas on the 1st September.
The first trailer for The Roses written by Academy Award® nominee Tony McNamara (Poor Things, The Favourite) and directed by Jay Roach (Bombshell, Austin Powers) has been released.
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.
Presented by Searchlight Pictures, as well as Academy Award® winner Colman (Wicked Little Letters, The Favourite) and Academy Award® nominee Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange, The Power of the Dog), the film stars: Andy Samberg (Palm Springs, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping), Academy Award® winner Allison Janney (I,Tonya), Belinda Bromilow (‘The Great’), Sunita Mani (‘GLOW’), Ncuti Gatwa (Barbie, ‘Doctor Who’), Jamie Demetriou (‘Fleabag’), Zoë Chao (Nightbitch), and Kate McKinnon (Barbie, Ghostbusters).
