Red, White & Royal Wedding gets R-rating for ‘sexual content and nudity’
Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine in Red, White & Royal Blue (Amazon)
The Red, White & Royal Blue sequel, Red, White & Royal Wedding, has been given an R-rating for “sexual content and nudity”, with fans hoping for some spicy scenes.
The film, starring Taylor Zakhar Perez as Alex, the bisexual son of the United States president, and Nicholas Galitzine, the gay British Prince Henry, has been Rated R “for sexual content/nudity and language”.
While the title led to speculation that Alex and Henry may be getting married, Galitzine and Zakhar Perez have instead said it will follow the wedding of Henry’s younger sister, Princess Beatrice.
Either way, fans of the franchise are excited, and hoping for some saucy scenes, which Casey McQuiston has already promised.
One said on X: “Can’t wait to see He-Man and his boyfriend get it on.” Another said: “Taylor showing more of that a**.” A third wrote: “TZP better deliver on the full frontal he’s been teasing about for months!” As another said: “Oh I am sat! We are gonna be so fed.”
Some others, however, pointed out that the original Red, White & Royal Blue was also given an R-rating, attempting to lower expectations.
The US film ratings director shows both films are Rated R, however the wording for the reasoning is slightly different. The first movie had “some sexual content, partial nudity and language”, while the wording for the sequel suggests there may be more than “some” sexual content or “partial” nudity.
In the UK, the original was given a 12 rating, for “language, sex, sex references”. The sequel’s UK rating has not yet been confirmed.
