'Red, White & Royal Blue' Sequel Update Clarified by Author
The author of 'Red, White & Royal Blue' wants fans to know the sequel is still happening!
When she said 'pencils down,' it just meant the manuscript was finished.
The sequel was approved last year.
The author, the original director, and the actors are all coming back, and they're creating the new movie based on the author's ideas because there's no book sequel to follow.
Author Casey McQuiston clarified the status of the 'Red, White & Royal Blue' sequel on social media.
McQuiston's use of 'pencils down' means the manuscript is complete, not that the sequel is canceled.
Amazon MGM Studios approved the sequel in May 2023.
The sequel will be based on McQuiston's ideas since the original book has no sequel.
Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine are returning for the sequel, along with Matthew López and Greg Berlanti.
