Red, White & Royal Blue Will Reign Again With Upcoming Sequel – E! Online
The confirmation of the sequel also comes just days after Galitzine shared insight into his experiences playing queer characters—including in the film Handsome Devil and limited series Mary & George—as someone who isn’t part of that community.
“I identify as a straight man, but I have been a part of some incredible queer stories,” he explained to British GQ in a profile published May 8. “I felt a sense of uncertainty sometimes about whether I’m taking up someone’s space, and perhaps guilt, at the same time, I see those characters as not solely their sexuality.”
But while it may be some time before fans see Galitzine and Zakhar Perez reunite in the follow-up to McQuiston’s beloved story, they can catch the Bottoms alum wooing Anne Hathaway in a different adaptation of a BookTok sensation: The Idea of You.
In the film, based on the novel by Robinne Lee, the actor plays the frontman of a global powerhouse boyband who romances with a single mom after a Coachella meet-cute.
