Prime Video’s Red, White & Blue is a month away from release and the streaming service is finally showing off the first official trailer for the gay romantic comedy set in the world of international politics. The trailer shows the antagonistic beginnings of the relationship between Britain’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) and Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the U.S. President, and teases their evolution from enemies to frenemies to lovers.
Based on Casey McQuiston’s bestselling 2019 LGBTQ love story, the rom-com stars Uma Thurman, Clifton Collins Jr., Sarah Shahi, Rachel Hilson, and Stephen Fry. The ensemble also includes Ellie Bamber, Thomas Flynn, Malcolm Atobrah, Akshay Khanna, Sharon D Clarke, Aneesh Sheth, and Juan Castano.

The Plot, Courtesy of Prime Video:
Alex Claremont-Diaz, the son of the President of the United States (Thurman), and Britain’s Prince Henry have a lot in common: Stunning good looks, undeniable charisma, international popularity … and a total disdain for each other. Separated by an ocean, their long-running feud hasn’t really been an issue, until a disastrous — and very public — altercation at a royal event becomes tabloid fodder, driving a potential wedge in U.S./British relations at the worst possible time.
Going into damage-control mode, their families and handlers force the two rivals into a staged “truce.” But as Alex and Henry’s icy relationship unexpectedly begins to thaw into a tentative friendship, the friction that existed between them sparks something deeper than they ever expected.
