"which stars two-time Academy Award nominee Benedict Cumberbatch, Oscar winner Olivia Colman, and SNL alums Andy Samberg and Kate McKinnon. The film follows a "perfect couple," restaurateur Ivy (Colman) and architect Theo Rose (Cumberbatch). They appear to be living an ideal life, complete with successful careers, a loving marriage, and children - but the Roses' facade begins to crumble when Theo's career grinds to a halt as Ivy's takes off."
"The Roses takes a serious subject matter and puts a hilarious twist on it, and the audience couldn't stop laughing throughout the screening. While Cumberbatch and Colman deliver laugh-out-loud performances, Samberg and McKinnon also bring their comedic stylings to the film, playing Theo's divorce lawyer, Barry, and his wife, Amy. Rounding out the cast is Allison Janney as Ivy's divorce lawyer and comedian Sunita Mani and Barbie star Ncuti Gatwa as Ivy's employees. Jamie Demetriou and Zoë Chao also feature as friends of the Roses."
