When Does the Film "The Roses" (2025) Take Place?

"The Roses" is a comedy film written by Tony McNamara [adapting "The War of the Roses" (1981) by Warren Adler] that released August 29th, 2025. So when is "The Roses" set? 


It takes place in the year: 

2024? AD 


We know this because Ivy Rose creates a computer-generated-imagery deepfake video or Theo Rose as part of the main characters' feud and this technology only became available to the public with Face2Face in 2016 AD. So it must be during or after 2016 AD. More specifically, it is 3? years after Ivy's restaurant opens in 2021 AD. 

2,021? + 3 = 2,024?. 

Additionally, there is a multi-part prologue: 

-The first part is 10? years before Ivy's restaurant opens in 2021 AD. So it's 2011? AD

2,021? - 10 = 2,011?. 

-The second part of the prologue is 10? years later. More specifically, Ivy's restaurant clearly says: "EST 2021  We've Got Crabs!  SEAFOOD BISTRO" on its signage and it opens very soon after these scenes. So it's probably 2021? AD
