'Red, White & Royal Blue' Trailer Serves Up All the Sexual Tension in Gay Royal Rom-Com
etonline.comis finally here! And the extended look at the R-rated, gay royal romance starring Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine did not disappoint, serving up all the sexual — and romantic — tension fans have been clamoring for since the film adaptation was first announced.
Adapted for Prime Video from Casey McQuiston's 2019 best-selling novel, tells the story of two high-profile young men, Alex Claremont-Diaz (Perez) and Henry (Galitzine), whose ongoing public feud leads to an unexpected, secret romance.
As the progeny of two major political families, with Alex the son of U.S. President Ellen Claremont (Uma Thurman) and Henry being a British prince and successor to the throne, the two share a number of things in common: good looks, charisma, popularity, pressures from being in the spotlight — as well as a notorious disdain for each other.
As teased in the trailer, appropriately set to Lil Nas X's «That's What I Want,» the latter is what gets them into trouble — and leads them to become even more entwined in each other's lives — after a public incident involving cake at a royal event makes headlines and potentially drives a wedge between America and the United Kingdom.
