Is it actually their wedding? The boys just posted a video from the set in London, and Taylor (Alex) dropped a bomb that’s left the fandom divided. “We’re here for Bea’s wedding,” he says, but then we see a clip of them in a bedroom in matching pajamas looking… very cozy. Is the title a total misdirect, or is the “First Son” about to pull off the ultimate secret proposal in the UK?

Plus: LENA HEADEY has joined the cast as Princess Catherine! The drama just leveled up to “Royal Emergency” status. 🥂🔥

The royal guards have been alerted and the champagne is on ice. After two months of high-stakes filming across London and Manchester, Amazon MGM Studios has officially wrapped production on Red, White & Royal Wedding, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2023 queer rom-com phenomenon Red, White & Royal Blue. However, as the first “Sneak Peek” footage hits social media, fans are reeling from a revelation that threatens to upend everything they thought they knew about the sequel.

 

The Production Wrap: “You’re Done!”

On March 7, 2026, stars Nicholas Galitzine (Prince Henry) and Taylor Zakhar Perez (Alex Claremont-Diaz) sent shockwaves through the digital world by posting a “wrap” video from the set. Flanked by director Jamie Babbit—who took over the reins from Matthew López—the duo appeared jubilant, signaling the end of principal photography that began in January.

 

According to Deadline, the production moved with “royal efficiency,” capturing the opulence of the British monarchy and the grit of the American political machine in record time. While a release date has not been confirmed, Prime Video insiders hint at a Winter 2026 or Early 2027 debut, strategically timed for the awards season and holiday viewership.

The Plot Twist: Whose Wedding Is It Anyway?

The biggest controversy currently dominating Reddit’s r/redwhiteandroyalblue is the film’s title versus its actual content. In a “Sneak Peek” video released to mark the start of production, Perez and Galitzine playfully addressed the “wedding” in the room.

“We are here for Bea’s wedding,” Taylor clarified, referring to Henry’s sister, Princess Beatrice (Ellie Bamber). Nicholas added fuel to the fire, stating that an Alex and Henry wedding is “a long ways off at this point.”

 

The fandom’s reaction has been a mix of excitement and skepticism. “They’re trolling us,” one top comment on X (formerly Twitter) reads. “You don’t call a movie ‘Red, White & Royal Wedding’ and then make it about the sister. There’s a secret proposal coming, I’d bet the Crown Jewels on it.”

A ‘Game of Thrones’ Reunion in the Palace

The sequel’s casting has added a layer of prestige (and drama) that has the internet buzzing. The most significant addition is Lena Headey (Game of Thrones), who has been confirmed to play Princess Catherine, Henry’s mother. Fans are already anticipating the “mother-off” of the century between Headey’s Catherine and Uma Thurman’s returning President Ellen Claremont.

Other newcomers include Chloe Fineman (SNL), Henry Ashton, and Alex Høgh Andersen, joining returning favorites Sarah Shahi (Zahra), Rachel Hilson (Nora), and Stephen Fry (King James III).

 

Spotted in London: The Kiss Heard ‘Round the World

Despite the actors’ attempts to downplay their own nuptials, “paparazzi” shots from the London set in early March tell a different, more romantic story. The Times of India and several fan accounts reported seeing the leads filming an “intimate, tender moment” on a London street. The sighting of Alex and Henry sharing a passionate kiss in what appeared to be formal wedding attire (separate from the bridesmaids’ palettes) has reignited theories that the movie will conclude with a double wedding or a surprise elopement.

 

The Creative Shift: A New Director’s Vision

The transition from Matthew López to Jamie Babbit (But I’m a Cheerleader, Only Murders in the Building) suggests a shift in tone. Babbit is known for her sharp, colorful, and unapologetically queer aesthetic. Insider reports suggest the sequel leans harder into the “Heated Rivalry” aspects of the relationship—balancing the high-stakes diplomacy of a royal-presidential union with the comedic chaos of two powerful families trying to organize a global event.

 

The Verdict: High Expectations

With the script co-written by original author Casey McQuiston, expectations are sky-high. The first film was a massive win for Prime Video, proving that R-rated queer romances have a massive global appetite. As post-production begins, the question remains: Will Alex and Henry actually say “I do,” or is this wedding just the prelude to a third film?

 

One thing is certain: whether it’s Bea’s big day or a surprise “First Prince” union, the world will be watching.
