Rosemary’s Baby Official Synopsis:
Based on the
1967 best-selling suspense novel by Ira Levin, this new adaptation of
“Rosemary’s Baby” centers on a young married couple who escapes New York and
moves to Paris with hopes of leaving their sad past behind. After a series of
unfortunate events, Rosemary and Guy Woodhouse are presented with an offer they
can’t refuse – an apartment at the most prestigious address in the city.
Problem is, it comes with a haunted past and an immeasurable price.
Rosemary
(Zoe Saldana, “Avatar,” “Star Trek Into Darkness”) and Guy (Patrick J. Adams,
“Suits”) are incredulous at their good fortune and find comfort in a strange
city among their new friends and neighbors, the Castevets. This well-to-do
successful older couple takes the newcomers under their wing and become very
involved with the Woodhouses’ lives. Things seem to be perfect as Rosemary
becomes pregnant and Guy’s career takes off. As their spirited best friend,
Guy’s co-worker Julie (Christina Cole), spends quality time with Rosemary in
the city, she finds Rosemary’s health worrying and cautions both of them that
something isn’t right. Soon there are other signs warning Rosemary to be
careful.
Guy seems to
be pulling away from Rosemary and spending a great deal of time hanging around
with Roman Castevet (Jason Isaacs, “Harry Potter” franchise). Roman’s wife, the
whimsical Margaux Castevet (Carole Bouquet, “For Your Eyes Only”), assures
Rosemary her herbs and holistic medicine will help with the pregnancy, but are
they helping or hurting? Rosemary’s quizzical nature leads her to investigate
the building and its past residents. She uncovers a dark past and realizes who
Roman Castevet truly is. But is it too late? Are the Castavets’ perceived
sinister motives legitimate or all in the pregnancy brain of Rosemary?
In this new
four-hour, two-part psychological thriller written by Scott Abbott (“Queen of
the Damned,”) and James Wong (“Final Destination 3,” “American Horror Story,”
“The X-Files”) and directed by Agnieszka Holland (“Europa Europa,” “The Wire,”
“Treme”), Rosemary quickly finds herself surrounded by peculiar people and
startling occurrences. Isolated in her apartment in a city where she doesn’t
speak the language, she begins to fear the worst: Guy may have made a pact with
their neighbors, promising their newborn as a human sacrifice in occult rituals
in exchange for a writing career. To what lengths would someone be willing to
go for success and fortune?
