Taylor Zakhar Perez has addressed the Red, White & Royal Blue sequel and it’s highly anticipated plot.
Back in May, fans were sent into a frenzy when director Matthew López and author Casey McQuiston – who wrote the original novel – announced that a second film was officially on the way.
“Yes, there’s gonna be a sequel,” the American playwright exclaimed during a fan screening.
The Along For The Ride author added, “Matthew and I are writing it together. That’s all we can say.”
While fans have been eager to learn more about the film’s plot, the same can’t be said for Zakhar Perez, who told Variety that he’s avoided script details.
“I can’t tell you anything, and this is for a fact because I said, ‘Don’t tell me anything, because if I’m asked about it, it’s going to be tough not to Tom Holland it and talk a little about Spider-Man,'” he joked while attending the 2024 Emmys.
When journalist Marc Malkin encouraged him to give just a little sliver of information, the Kissing Booth 3 star doubled down on being in the dark.
“I mean, the only thing I know is the special edition of the book, the blue book that came out, that’s the only thing I can think of being in the second one,” he added.
While Zakhar Perez didn’t share any tea on Red, White & Royal Blue 2 plot points, he did share his hopes for his and Nicholas Galitzine’s characters.
Taylor Zakhar Perez purposefully knows nothing about “Red, White & Royal Blue 2” as to not risk spoiling it.

“I talked to Casey, I talked to Matthew, and I think it’s just continuing to grow these two characters, because I think we just saw a nice little slice of who these guys are and what they’re able to do now,” he explained.
Zakhar Perez’s interview comes a few days after the film’s producer, Greg Berlanti, revealed to the aforementioned news outlet that López and McQuiston were nearly done with the script.
“What’s so great is that it feels like the natural next step in the journey of these characters,” he added.
