The release date for the Red, White and Royal Blue movie, but before that happens, let’s have a closer look at the amazing cast who will bring this beloved story to our screens.Based on the best-selling novel by Casey McQuiston, the R-rated gay romantic comedy follows Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the charismatic son of the US president, as he is forced into a sham friendship with the good-looking British Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) after a public (but rather sweet) incident.
However, it doesn’t take long for the fake friendship to develop into something more. The movie synopsis speaks of their entanglement, writing: “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.”But who exactly are the two charismatic leads in this modern fairytale?Taylor Zakhar Perez, who plays Alex Claremont-Diaz, is best known for his role as Shane on HBO Max’s Minx and as Marco Valentin Pena in the two sequels of Netflix’s The Kissing Booth.
