Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the President of the United States (Uma Thurman), and Britain's Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) have a lot in common: Stunning good looks, undeniable charisma, international popularity... and a total disdain for each other. 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. Going into damage-control mode, their families and handlers force the two rivals into a staged "truce." But as Alex and Henry's icy relationship unexpectedly begins to thaw into a tentative friendship, the friction that existed between them sparks something deeper than they ever expected. Based on Casey McQuiston's critically acclaimed New York Times best seller, Red, White & Royal Blue marks the feature film writing and directing debut of Tony Award-winning playwright Matthew López (The Inheritance).

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Amusing and endearing, Red, White & Royal Blue is a cheerfully formulaic rom-com that embraces inclusion without falling back on stereotypes.

If Red, White & Royal Blue sounds inelegant and feeble, it is.

Romey Norton

Film Focus Online

Red, White and Royal Blue as a whole is two hours of cheesy relationship drama, and certainly is made for those audiences who love tacky story-lines with no historical accuracy.

Rated: 2/5

Alex Valencia

Q+ Magazine

With amazing performances from the entire cast, a thoughtful script that stays as true to its source material as possible, and a love story that will make you swoon Red, White, & Royal Blue is without a doubt the rom-com of the summer.

SSG Syndicate

There's a charming contemporary LGBTQ+ twist to this snappy slapstick romantic comedy that's also sweetly sappy.

Rated: 7/10

Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/19/24 Full Review Saeko S Absolute trash… ratings have somehow been obviously manipulated to give it a much higher rating than it deserves. Who would bother fixing the ratings for this rubbish … maybe they did it for king and country. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/16/24 Full Review Nayara A The story is well constructed and the acting is incredible, not to mention the film's setting, which is fantastic. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/07/24 Full Review Mazza W It's as comforting as a hot bath after Christmas Dinner. The love and hope that emanates from between the two lead characters is palpable and deeply enjoyable. A stand out feel good movie.
