Red, White, and Royal Blue sequel in the works at Prime Video
A sequel to Red, White & Royal Blue is in the works from Prime Video. Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez are both reprising their roles as Prince Henry and Alex Claremont-Diaz, Matthew López, director and writer of the first film, returns to write the script. And for anyone who’s worried that the sequel movie might not capture the book’s spirit, don’t worry — author Casey McQuiston will also be co-writing the script.
Based on the immensely popular romance novel of the same name, Red, White & Royal Blue follows a fictional prince of England and U.S. president’s son who fall in love after some wonderful rivals-to-friends-to-hook-up-buddies tension. The movie adaptation changes a few details, but otherwise is a pretty faithful recreation of the story which charmed many hardcore fans of the book.
There’s no release date or plot details for the sequel, but if you’re itching for a rom-com in the mean time, Prime Video’s latest one, The Idea of You, also stars Galitzine (this time alongside Anne Hathaway). And if you’re hungry for more queer rom-coms specifically, McQuiston’s newest book, The Pairing, is out on Aug. 6.
