Directed by 'Far from Heaven' helmer Todd Haynes the film will be screened on October 14 said The Hollywood Reporter.
Adaptation of 'The Price of Salt', a lesbian romance by Patricia Highsmith, the film is set in the 1950s and focuses on a woman in her 20s (Mara) who works in a Manhattan department store and meets Carol (Blanchett), who is trapped in a loveless, convenient marriage.
"'Carol' is a deeply romantic, emotionally honest love story and is also cinema at its most intoxicating and immaculate," said BFI London Film Festival director, Clare&nbsp;Stewart.
"We are all extremely proud to be presenting the UK premiere of 'Carol' at the BFI London Film Festival, a film adaptation which had its roots in Britain, and a festival which has meant a tremendous amount to me personally over the years," Haynes said.
The BFI London Film Festival 2015 runs from October 7 to 18, 2015.
