Red, White & Royal Wedding, the sequel film to Amazon MGM Studios’ romantic comedy film adaptation of Casey McQuiston’s best-selling novel Red, White & Royal Blue, has set the return of many key players from the original film reprising their roles.
Henry Ashton (A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, My Lady Jane) and Alex Høgh Andersen (Vikings, The Room Next Door) are new to the Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez-led cast for the second movie.
Uma Thurman (Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair), Sarah Shahi (Paradise, Sex/Life), Rachel Hilson (This Is Us, Duster), Ellie Bamber (Moss & Freud, The Serpent), Clifton Collins Jr. (Jockey, Capote), Stephen Fry (The Morning Show, The Dropout), Thomas Flynn (Run Away, Riot Women), Aneesh Sheth (Marvel’s Jessica Jones, The Walking Dead), and Malcolm Atobrah (The Running Man, Rye Lane) will all return.
Plot details for the sequel are being kept under wraps. Jamie Babbit is directing the film from a script by Gemma Burgess, Matthew López, and Red, White & Royal Blue author Casey McQuiston.
In a behind-the-scenes video Perez and Galitzine cleared up whose wedding would be the subject of the sequel film, and it won’t be nuptials between their characters Alexander Clairmont-Diaz and Prince Henry.
“Oh, I did want to say that we are here for Bea’s wedding,” Perez noted in a video hinting at the start of production earlier this week. Beatrice is Henry’s sister, played by Ellie Bamber.
Berlanti Schechter Films’ Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter are returning to produce the film, joined by the banner’s Michael McGrath, as well as Matthew López and Sullivan Street Productions’ Jennifer Salke. Casey McQuiston and Michael Constable are executive producing. López directed the first film.
