Ever since it was announced back in May of last year that a Red, White & Royal Blue sequel was in the works, fans have been desperate for any new updates from those involved. Well, thanks to Casey McQuiston, who wrote the critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller, we have a new teaser.
"I'm going to play it safe and say that I can share that I've been working on a script, I am cowriting it with Matthew Lopez, who wrote and directed the first movie, which I know so many readers know and love. And so I can say that we've been working on that script and that I've spoken to a lot of the cast about the sequel, and that they're all so excited about it, and about hopefully moving forward with the next steps," they shared in an interview with Yahoo's Queer Voices. "But I think what you can expect from the sequel is a glimpse into Alex and Henry's life after the confetti has finished falling from the first movie, and you have to move forward together as two adults in a real, serious adult partnership."
The author continued to say, "With pressures and expectations and dreams that might be coming into conflict with each other, and things that might be pulling them and pushing them in different directions and how they navigate that together. So as vaguely as possible, that's what I'm allowed to say."

The cast of the first film included Nicholas Galitzine, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Clifton Collins Jr., Sarah Shahi, Rachel Hilson, with Stephen Fry and Uma Thurman, Ellie Bamber, Thomas Flynn, Malcolm Atobrah, Akshay Khanna, Sharon D. Clarke, Aneesh Sheth, and Juan Castano.
Alex Claremont-Diaz, the son of the first woman President of the United States, and Britain’s Prince Henry have a lot in common: stunning good looks, undeniable charisma, international popularity…and a total disdain for each other. Separated by an ocean, their long-running feud hasn’t really been an issue, until a disastrous—and very public—altercation at a royal event becomes tabloid fodder driving a potential wedge in U.S./British relations at the worst possible time. Going into damage control mode, their powerful families and respective handlers force the two rivals into a staged “truce.” But as Alex and Henry’s icy relationship unexpectedly begins to thaw into a tentative friendship, the friction that existed between them sparks something deeper than they ever expected.
