It’s Friday, and time to take a look at what’s been added to Disney+ in the United Kingdom and Ireland today, which includes a brand new film from 20th Century Studios.

Here’s the rundown:


Rosaline

“Rosaline” is a fresh and comedic twist on Shakespeare’s classic love story “Romeo & Juliet,” told from the perspective of Juliet’s cousin Rosaline (Dever), who also happens to be Romeo’s recent love interest. Heartbroken when Romeo (Kyle Allen) meets Juliet (Isabela Merced) and begins to pursue her, Rosaline schemes to foil the famous romance and win back her guy. Directed by Karen Maine (“Yes, God, Yes”), the film also stars Sean Teale (“Skins”), with Minnie Driver (“Speechless”) and Bradley Whitford (“The Handmaid’s Tale”).

Le Fate Ignoranti

Antonia and Massimo have been married for more than ten years when Massimo tragically dies. While grieving her husband, Antonia accidentally finds out that Massimo had been cheating on her with a man named Michele. Sharing their pain for Massimo’s loss brings Antonia and Michele closer and closer and transforms their rivalry and resentment into a deep complicity, or even something more.
