Red, White & Royal Blue made the leap from book to screen in 2023 — so much so that it was nominated for Best Television Movie at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards! The film adaptation of Casey McQuiston’s best-selling novel hit Prime Video in August 2023. Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine star as Alex Claremont-Diaz, the First Son of the United States, and Prince Henry of England, and the film chronicles Alex and Henry’s love story.
Thank to the big demand from fans and the success of the original film, Red, White & Royal Blue 2 (which is not the sequel’s official title) is now in development. News47.us has rounded up everything we know about what’s next for Alex and Henry.
On May 9, 2024, the cast and crew of Red, White & Royal Blue appeared at a post-screening Q&A in Los Angeles, where Matthew and Casey confirmed to an eager audience that they are, in fact, writing the sequel.
After being asked whether or not there would be a second film, Matthew enthusiastically confirmed the news to a crowd of screaming fans.
More than one year later, Prime Video confirmed that the sequel was in development by sharing an Instagram video titled with the film’s title: Red, White & Royal Wedding. Jamie Babbit will direct the second movie. A release date has yet to be confirmed.
Yes! In October 2022, Casey published a bonus chapter that was part of a Red, White & Royal Blue collector’s edition. The epilogue, told through Henry’s perspective, picks up seven years after the events of Red, White & Royal Blue.
