Olivia Colman’s Bizarre Exit from London Roses After Party with Greta Gerwig and Judge Rinder

Olivia Colman made a bizarre exit from the raucous The Roses after party, held at The Ivy Soho Brasserie in London on Thursday.

The actress, 51, who plays Ivy in The Roses, left alongside bleary-eyed Greta Gerwig and TV icon Judge Rinder, 47.

Her upcoming movie is a remake of the 1989 Hollywood classic War Of The Roses, also starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Allison Janney.

After turning heads in a stunning green silk dress at the UK premiere, Olivia opted for a comfy ensemble as she slipped into oversized denim jeans for her departure.

American actress and screenwriter Greta, 42, cut a sophisticated figure in a navy suit and white shirt.

The Traitors winner Leanne Quigley, 28, looked incredibly glamorous in a semi-sheer sequin green gown.

Meanwhile, Love Island’s Chyna Mills and her Strictly Come Dancing fiancé Neil Jones enjoyed a date night at the fun-filled after party.

Katie Piper looked incredibly glamorous in a semi-sheer top and white maxi skirt as she joined her husband Richard James Sutton.

Still going strong, Love Island’s Lauren Wood and Harrison Solomon enjoyed a night out at the movie premiere.

Olivia and Benedict follow in the footsteps of Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner as they play a married couple whose increasingly bitter separation explodes into comically exaggerated resentment and hatred. 

The movie is directed by Jay Roach, who previously worked on the Austin Powers comedies, and is scripted by Poor Things writer Tony McNamara. 

The cast also includes the new Doctor Who, Ncuti Gatwa, and American comedians Andy Samberg and Kate McKinnon.

Filming took place in both Salcombe, south Devon and Los Angeles, with the pair first seen on set on a beach in Devon in June last year.

The 1989 version was directed by Danny DeVito, who also starred as a divorce lawyer, reuniting a trio who had proved so successful in the 1984 adventure Romancing the Stone and its sequel, The Jewel Of The Nile.

The new version has been described as a ‘re-imagining’.

Producers Searchlight Pictures say of the plot: ‘Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Theo and Ivy: successful careers, great kids, an enviable sex life. 

‘But underneath the facade of the perfect family is a tinderbox of competition and resentments that’s ignited when Theo’s professional dreams come crashing down.’

Sources say that despite the actors being ‘very keen’ to work together, all was not well during filming, with Benedict’s serious ‘method’ acting at odds with Olivia’s ‘no-nonsense, let’s get on with it’ attitude.  

One insider told The Mail on Sunday: ‘The Roses was supposed to be a fairly easy and straightforward one to film – about a husband and a wife who don’t like one another.

‘But at times Benedict was treating it like it was some kind of Shakespearean play, wanting to seriously connect with his part, which is totally fair enough.

‘Olivia is very much the type to just get on with it, no faffing. It’s a comedy – it’s like there was a lot of overthinking going on.

‘It led to the chemistry between them not exactly being the best. It was a comedy, like a romcom, not the airy fairy-type stuff Benedict has done before.’ 

A spokesman for Benedict attempted to play down the issues between the pair.
