Red, White & Royal Sequel
After a lengthy delay, the sequel to the gay romcom Red, White and Royal Blue has been announced. Or, rather, re-announced, because they already announced it last May, shortly after the first film aired on Amazon Prime (you can be forgiven if you thought it was on the Hallmark Channel). Following the Hallmark formula, the sequel will be called Red, White & Royal Wedding – clearing the way for Red, White & Royal Baby, and the inevitable Red, White & Royal Divorce, and the eventual Red, White and Royal Reconciliation. Predictably, Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez will return. But Matthew Lopez has bowed out of directing the sequel, while he will allegedly stay on to co-write the script. He’ll be replaced in the director’s chair by Jamie Babbit.
Oh, I forgot Red, White and Royal Honeymoon. But should this be an option, we’re happy to suggest some destinations. Right off the bat, I wouldn’t recommend a trip to Disneyland – especially after headlines that the Haunted Mansion has a new resident. Last week, a woman actually died on the attraction – although, Disney went to great pains to clarify she did NOT die on the ride. They issued a statement that “the guest was transported to a local hospital, where she was later pronounced deceased”. Entertainment Weekly went so far as to point out the ride begins with visitors being locked inside a room, and challenged by a ghost to “find a way out”. It’s kinda like Hotel California – you can check out any time you’d like, but you can never leave.
