The Roses is a reimagining of the 1989 classic film The War of the Roses, based on the novel by Warren Adler. The central theme from the 1989 film—how a loving couple’s marriage can so intensely fall apart—remains intact while Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch introduce a more modern dynamic.
Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy and Theo: 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.
