## Key points

- Galitzine called filming the sequel a “nice reset”.
- He spent five months shooting the World War II drama.
- The sequel’s release date has not been announced.

## Summary

Galitzine has revealed that filming the “Red, White & Royal Blue” sequel was a “nice reset” after five months on the World War II drama “The Mosquito Bowl”, where he said bombs were blowing up around him. The contrast reflects the very different tone of the projects: he describes the war film as an anti-war story showing the brutality of combat.

“Red, White & Royal Wedding” reunites Galitzine as Prince Henry with Taylor Zakhar Perez as Alex and adds Lena Headey as Henry’s mother. Plot details remain under wraps; the film reportedly centres on Princess Beatrice’s wedding, and Prime Video has not announced a release date. In “The Mosquito Bowl”, Galitzine plays real-life football star John McLaughry, and the film is due in cinemas on 30 October and on Netflix on 25 November.
