Starring Olivia Colman (Ivy Rose) and Benedict Cumberbatch (Theo Rose), the Roses live a seemingly picture-perfect life. They have the perfect marriage, business, home and kids, but beneath it all, a fire is igniting.
Jay Roach directs "The Roses," a reimagining of the 1989 film "The War of the Roses," based on the novel by Warren Adler.
On The Red Carpet caught up with Roach to celebrate the digital release, where he explained the role food plays in the film.
"Oliva Colman's character dreams of being a chef. It becomes a story about her expanding those restaurants and finding herself through food. Food becomes both a weapon and a source of sensual, you know, enjoyment. So, it's a really wonderful food-based film."
And does it make a good date night movie? Roach thinks it does!
"There's a kind of date night quality to it, if you're willing to explore a cautionary tale about how not to behave in a relationship, because there is some wonderful , amazing chemistry between Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch. So, I hope people kind of look at it as a little couples therapy!"
"The Roses" is available now on digital and begins streaming November 20 on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+.
The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Searchlight Pictures, Hulu, Disney+ and this ABC station.
