Will there be a Red, White & Royal Blue sequel? Here's everything you need to know about the upcoming movie.
Red, White & Royal Blue fans assemble! A sequel movie with Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez is now in the works.
Ever since Prime Video's adaptation of Red, White & Royal Blue came out in 2023, fans have been desperate for more. Just like the book, the movie tells the story of the First Son of the United States, Alex (Taylor Zakhar Perez), and his enemies to lovers relationship with British Prince, Henry (Nicholas Galitzine). It's hot, sexy and touching...but what happens next?
Well, Prime Video have now confirmed that Red, White & Royal Blue 2 is happening. When does it come out though? Who will be in the cast? Is there a book for fans to read before? Here's everything you need to know about the sequel.
As it stands, there is no official Red, White & Royal Blue 2 release date. Prime Video announced the sequel on May 9th. That being said, production is still yet to begin. Once filming starts, we'll have a clearer idea as to when we can expect more of Alex and Henry's romance.
The original Red, White & Royal Blue was filmed between June and August 2022. It then debuted on Prime Video in August 2023. With that in mind, if filming takes place this year, the sequel could come out as soon as summer 2025.
For the time being, there isn't a second Red, White & Royal Blue book and it's unclear if one will come out before the sequel movie. However, author Casey McQuiston has not ruled it out. Speaking to Hello! in 2019, they said: "I will say I have plenty of ideas for stories set in this world and would love the chance to explore one of them some day."
They added: "I would be surprised if you've seen the last of Alex and Henry. "For those wanting to read a little more about Alex and Henry's relationship, Casey did release a bonus chapter detailing the events of the couple's relationship from Henry's perspective. That chapter includes details of their engagement (!) and move to Texas.
Whether Casey will opt just to work on the second Red, White & Royal Blue movie or a whole new book is yet to be seen.

When announcing Red, White & Royal Blue 2, Prime Video confirmed that Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez will be back as Prince Henry and Alex Claremont-Diaz respectively. Other cast members are yet to be announced but many of the original cast were at the announcement. With that in mind, we expect these cast members to all come back.
Matthew Lopez will also return as a director and we imagine that multiple new characters will appear.
Details for the Red, White & Royal Blue 2 plot are currently under wraps. However, with Casey McQuiston already writing a bonus book chapter about Alex and Prince Henry's engagement, it's possible that the second film will focus on their engagement and eventual marriage.
Just like the first book and film, we imagine that there will be plenty of chaos and laughs along the way.
