Here’s who’s in the cast of Red, White & Royal Blue – and where you'll recognise Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine from.

Red, White & Royal Blue is based on the best-selling book of the same name, by Casey McQuiston, and has landed on Prime Video to keep our obsession with summer romances, similar to Heartstopper and The Summer I Turned Pretty, well-fuelled.

The film centres on the US president’s son called Alex (played by Taylor Zakhar-Perez) and British Prince Henry (Nicholas Galtzine), whose long-running feud takes a turn after they’re forced to stage a truce.

After years of being icy with one another, the two develop a close bond which goes beyond friendship but, given they’re both under immense media scrutiny, must decide how to best navigate their relationship in the spotlight.

The star-studded cast is just one of the reasons people are tuning into the new LGBTQ movie - but others are raving about the soundtrack too. Not to mention the stars’ actual friendship off-screen too.

Director Matthew Lopez told Teen Vogue he couldn’t imagine anyone else playing the duo.

He also recalled to GQ for the men’s joint interview they were ‘instant best friends’ when he left them alone for a moment.

Lopez said: “I came back about 10 minutes later and they were the best of friends already,” he says. “It was like they had known each other all their lives.”

While Taylor has starred in The Kissing Booth one and two, fans will recognise Nicholas too – from Purple Hearts and the Cinderella live-action movie which starred Camila Cabello in 2021.
