"Red, White & Royal Blue" was published in 2020. The novel captivated fans—the romantic tension between Prince of Wales Henry and the President of the USA's son Alex was unmistakable. The book aligns with contemporary trends while flawlessly mirroring familiar tropes in literature. They love each other but can't be together—once, the reason was a social chasm; today, its conventions are seemingly different but essentially similar.
Last year, the "Red, White & Royal Blue" adaptation was released on Amazon Prime. Nicholas Galitzine ("Bottoms," "The Idea of You," "Chambers") portrayed Prince Henry, and Taylor Zakhar Perez ("The Kissing Booth" 2 and 3) played Alex. The film was a hit, leading the platform to officially announce that another part of the story featuring the British prince and the first son of the USA will be released soon.
"Red, White & Royal Blue" - the sequel is on its way!
Amazon Prime released a brief announcement. A poster appeared on the platform's socials that doesn't even include a title. Honestly, it doesn't need to. Fans of the "Red, White & Royal Blue" production immediately knew what the graphic signified.
A picture of a broken cake references one of the most iconic scenes from the first part of the movie. The flags stuck in the cake unmistakably represent Alex and Henry, and a candle with the number two cleverly hints at the sequel of the contemporary aristocrats' story.
It is known that work on the second part of "Red, White & Royal Blue" has begun. Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez will reprise their roles, and soon, we will see them again as a love-struck couple riddled with numerous contradictions and challenges.
