'The Roses' Sets August 2025 Release with Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman

Searchlight Pictures confirms Labor Day weekend debut for the modern reimagining of the 1989 dark comedy 'The War of the Roses.'

Directed by Jay Roach and written by Tony McNamara, 'The Roses' explores the unraveling of a seemingly perfect marriage driven by ambition and hidden resentments.
Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman lead the star-studded cast, which also includes Andy Samberg, Allison Janney, Ncuti Gatwa, and Kate McKinnon.
The film is inspired by the 1989 classic 'The War of the Roses,' originally directed by Danny DeVito and based on Warren Adler's novel.
Cumberbatch and Colman also serve as producers alongside a team that includes Jay Roach and Cumberbatch's SunnyMarch banner.
A potential trailer for the film is anticipated at CinemaCon, as promotional efforts ramp up ahead of the August 29, 2025, release.
