The Roses has no post-credit scene

The film concludes after the reunion of the tumultuous couple. So, when Ivy and Theo are indulging in their close, lovey-dovey moments, Theo commands the automatic home appliance system. But alas! Little do they know that a gas discharge is already occurring due to Ivy's faulty oven. It seems like chaos never really leaves the couple alone.

Just then, the screen gets washed into complete white. That's that. The movie ends. No credit cookie is attached at the end of the film. After such an unsettling and obscure ending, we do not really get a definitive, tangible answer. So you do not need to wait around for a funny, conclusive, or futuristic stinger to take place after the film ends.

The original film in 1989, starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner, is actually derived from a novel written by Warren Adler in 1981, named 'The War of the Roses'. This new black comedy film, however, is helmed by Jay Roach, with a screenplay penned by Tony McNamara.

Along with Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch, the film boasts a talented cast of actors, including:

Ncuti Gatwa as Jeffrey
Andy Samberg as Barry
Kate McKinnon as Amy
Zoë Chao as Sally
Sunita Mani as Jane
Allison Janney as Eleanor
Jamie Demetriou as Rory
Akie Kotabe as Alan
Belinda Bromilow as Janice
Delaney Quinn as the Younger Hattie Rose
Hala Finley as the Older Hattie Rose
Ollie Robinson as the Younger Roy Rose
Wells Rappaport as the Older Roy Rose

Upon its release, the film garnered a rating of 7.0/10 at IMDb, and an average score of 65% on Rotten Tomatoes. Its Popcornmeter score, which is on the higher side, currently stands at 78%.

Regarding its box office performance, the film has garnered a worldwide collection of $20,584,152, as recorded by Box Office Mojo.

Interestingly, Kathreen Turner was seen at the NYC premiere of The Roses, as reported by JustJared. This was an exceptional moment, as we do not see the veteran star making a lot of public appearances.
