One of the final comedy films of the summer has arrived — Emma Seligman’s “Bottoms” (2023). Co-written by Seligman, who directs, and Rachel Sennott, who stars as one of the main characters, the queer comedy film watches two unpopular teens plot a way to win over their popular crushes. They ultimately decide that a fight club is the best way to do this.
The antics of the Rockbridge Falls football team take a subplot to this main thread, until, of course, the two leading players realize what the club scheme is really all about. Some other conflicts of interest arise as the film goes on.
Here are the cast and characters of “Bottoms”:
Rachel Sennott as Pj in “Bottoms”
Pj (Rachel Sennott)
Pj, who loves overalls and suspenders, has a huge crush on Brittany (Kaia Gerber), and her hopeless romanticism combined with her refusal to quit leads her to take this crush to extreme lengths.

On August 11, 2023, Amazon Prime Video released “Red, White & Royal Blue,” which quickly became the streamer’s most-watched film worldwide. Certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with an audience score of 94%, the critics consensus reads, “Amusing and endearing, ‘Red, White & Royal Blue’ is a cheerfully formulaic rom-com that embraces inclusion without falling back on stereotypes.”
In his directorial debut, Matthew Lopez helms the film based on Casey McQuiston‘s bestselling novel. Taylor Zakhar Perez plays Alex Claremont-Diaz, the son of American President Ellen Claremount (Uma Thurman). His feud with Britain’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) threatens to drive a wedge in U.S./British relations, and the two are forced into a staged truce that sparks something deeper.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have walked away from royal life in March 2020, but they continue to utilize some of the perks that come with being a member of the House of Windsor.

In Red, White & Royal Blue, an unexpected fling goes from playful secret to intimate love story for Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the first son of the United States, and Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine), Britain’s spare.
Adapted for the screen by co-writers Ted Malawer and Matthew López (who pulled double duty as director) from Casey McQuiston’s new, wildly popular adult best-seller of the same name, the film arrives just a year after a slew of notable (and often comedic) queer romance releases — including Fire Island, Bros, My Policeman and fellow Prime Video title Anything’s Possible — and amid several anticipated 2023 titles like Bottoms, Joy Ride and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe.
With the arrival of these films and Red, White & Royal Blue comes fuller depictions of not just queer identity and life, but also intimacy. It’s a topic that has historically been taboo on U.

The adaptation of Casey M’s 2019 novel Red, White, And Royal Blue has finally been released, and as much as we want to gush about it, we’re quite disappointed by it.

In Matthew López’s Red, White & Royal Blue, queer love is an international incident.
The anticipated big screen adaptation of Casey McQuiston’s bestseller follows the first son of the United States, Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), and Britain’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) after their lives become diplomatically entwined following a royal wedding cake snafu. Forced into a fake friendship to rehab the approval ratings of Alex’s mother, President Ellen Claremont (Uma Thurman), and salvage the respectability of the Crown, the men discover there may be more love than hate between them — despite an ocean of differences as people and stifling traditions that threaten their ability to be together.

Prime Video has released its “Red White & Royal Blue” film, based on Casey McQuiston’s novel, and viewers are in store for some great twists on romantic comedy tropes and foreign relations.
McQuiston’s novel follows Alex Claremont Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), son of the first woman to become president of the United States (Uma Thurman) as he butts heads with Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) constantly, which gets them both into trouble. The president sent her son to the royal wedding with only one operative: Do not cause a scene. But apparently, he caused a big enough commotion to take the cake — literally a large wedding cake toppled onto Alex and Henry after an altercation on the dance floor. Smoothing things over, at least in a famous fake friendship kind of way, the boys strike up an actual relationship, romantic and all.

Content warning: the following story contains spoilers for "Red, White & Royal Blue."
Turning a beloved novel into a film is always a challenge, since there are inevitably things from the book that will have to be left out. In the new movie "Red, White & Royal Blue," based on Casey McQuiston's best-selling romance novel of the same name, director Matthew Lopez (who co-wrote the screenplay with Ted Malawer) had to make some choices about what to edit or change when adapting the book for the big screen. The book and movie both tell the love story of Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), first son of the United States, and Britain's Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine), and their general trajectory is about the same in both tellings. But the world around them is quite a bit different between the book and the film, with some beloved characters getting completely cut from the narrative.

Nicholas Galitzine first gained attention when he played Prince Charming opposite Camilla Cabello in the 2021 film musical adaptation of “Cinderella.” The project launched a career that seems to have been going non-stop ever since.
In “Purple Hearts,” a romantic drama from Netflix, Galitzine played a troubled Marine who falls for an aspiring singer (Sofia Carson) after they marry in order to get military benefits. It became a bona fide hit, with Netflix claiming it was the streamer’s third-most watched film of 2022.
Now, Galitzine, 28, can be seen in Amazon Prime’s “Red, White & Royal Blue,” director Matthew López’s feature adaptation of the bestselling LGBTQ romance novel of the same name.

It’s still summer, so it’s still time for light, puffy comedies while the temps are warm. Red, White & Royal Blue is a beach-read of a comedy, a frothy confection in which a young American meets a young British prince. Except this American is not someone ordinary but the son of the President – a woman President no less. But the president’s son and the royal develop an immediate mutual dislike, but despite their dislike, they are forced to pretend to be friends for diplomatic reasons. You know where this goes but what looks at first like a bromance quickly shifts into gay rom-com. Red, White & Royal Blue is a modern fantasy packed with rom-com tropes, plenty of silliness, plus a touch of Jane Austen and Harry and Meghan flavor.

But the president’s son and the royal develop an immediate mutual dislike, but despite their dislike, they are forced to pretend to be friends for diplomatic reasons. You know where this goes but what looks at first like a bromance quickly shifts into gay rom-com. Red, White & Royal Blue is a modern fantasy packed with rom-com tropes, plenty of silliness, plus a touch of Jane Austen and Harry and Meghan flavor.

Stars: Nicholas Galitzine, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Uma Thurman, Sarah Shahi | Written by Matthew Lopez, Ted Malawar | Directed by Matthew Lopez
The first son of the US President, Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), isn’t particularly liked by the UK’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine). After a prickly meeting at a royal function makes headlines, the two are forced into a PR tour to rectify their relationship. The process makes the two realise that there might be more feelings there than first thought, leading to an epic LGBT cross-country romance that’s set to shatter all boundaries.
The Americans and an infatuation with the British royal family is a love story that has been aeons in the making. Painted as an institution that is only viewed through rose-tinted glasses, the real-life version is something to be frequently consumed and celebrated. With that in mind, it makes complete sense for the melding...

Matters of the heart are difficult enough, but when they become matters of state, everything gets more complicated. That's the theme (and the tagline) of Prime Video's Red, White & Royal Blue, in which Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the President of the United States, and Britain's Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) form a surprising connection after they're forced together as part of a geopolitical PR stunt. As Alex and Henry grow closer, they begin to chafe against the restrictions of their respective worlds and the expectations placed upon them by their families, their armies of handlers, and the public.

The “prince of England’s hearts” falls for the American president’s son (or is it the other way around?) in “Red, White & Royal Blue,” an effervescent gay rom-com that might be easily dismissed as a mere trifle, were it not for the still-historic novelty of its existence. Arriving less than a year after “Bros,” director Matthew López’s Amazon-backed, R-rated lark goes even further to normalize queer romance on-screen, taking a classic “chick flick” premise — the kind once reserved for Mandy Moore and Amanda Bynes movies, à la “Chasing Liberty” or “What a Girl Wants” — and recasting it with dudes.
Are gay men the target audience? No question, although “Red, White & Royal Blue” (adapted from the book by Casey McQuiston) reminded me more of that surprising subsection of manga known as “yaoi” — or “boys’ love” comics — marketed primarily to young female readers.

Why don’t they make great romantic comedies like they used to?
This age-old question has become a tiresome one these days, though Hollywood—especially streamers—is continuing to give us reasons to keep asking it. For every “The Big Sick,” “Rye Lane” or “Bros”—brilliant films that manage to use genre tropes in fresh, lean and inventive ways—there seem to be multiples of “Happiest Season,” “To All The Boys” and “Red, White & Royal Blue.”
That last title is playwright Matthew López’s feature debut and a frustrating entry into the rom-com genre. It’s not because it’s particularly bad—thanks to some occasionally inspired moments and delightful leads, it’s watchable—but because it’s bloated and undisciplined through meandering excesses that stubbornly hold it back from becoming the sizzling charmer it could have been.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Red, White & Royal Blue shares very little with first-time director Matthew López’s Tony-winning play The Inheritance. Both works address the social mores of young gay men from disparate backgrounds in the wake of a crisis, but where the characters in López’s career-defining play are processing the traumas of AIDS, the biggest hiccup in the lives of the film’s characters turns out to be a destroyed wedding cake.
No shade. Not every piece of art about gay desire needs to be rooted in trauma and internalized shame, and López’s film boasts a handful of sex scenes—between Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the American president, and England’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine)—that will surely satisfy anyone who’s horny for representation. But everything around those scenes—the histrionic scenarios, the Sorkin-esque political idealism, the Gen Z-pandering internet humor—is too limp...

If you ran into any football fans last week, you’ll have to forgive an excitement level that to many seems premature still. Competitive, regular season football is still a month away, but last week saw the beginning of the NFL preseason, meaning every week between now and February will feature a college or NFL football contest on TV.
If you couldn’t care less about football or the beginning of the college sports season, then you probably weren’t encouraged to learn that the first meeting between striking writers and studios essentially went nowhere last week, according to Variety. The good news is that there are still plenty of new shows and movies headed to streaming this week, so you can forget your strike-induced woes for a few days at any rate.

Much like her namesake, it seems Dolores Roach can survive under even the harshest conditions.
In The Horror of Dolores Roach Season 1 finale, it feels like Dolores’ (Justina Machado) luck might be running out. To quickly recap, so far she has murdered: the landlord’s son and the landlord himself, Jeremiah, a couple of neighborhood drug dealers, a local laundromat operator, a private investigator and maybe her sidekick Luis (Alejandro Hernandez).

Fans believe in the magic of Hallmark programming. It's feel-good, heartwarming entertainment that often reminds you of the beauty in this world.
It's also one of the few options available if you're looking for a little old-fashioned romance. It's the on-screen counterpart of Harlequin Romance novels, which bypass sex for love.
Hallmark movies give us hope that we, too, will find a soul willing to see the best of us while accepting our faults.
Katie Cassidy and Stephen Huszar star in A Royal Christmas Crush, premiering this Saturday on Hallmark Channel. Hunky royals are a modern-day fantasy in the Hallmark universe, and Katie's Ava Jensen and Stephen's Prince Henry fall madly in love.
As it turns out, so did the costars, as Katie and Stephen announced recently they were, in fact, a couple.
