"Red, White & Royal Blue" is based on the popular 2019 novel of the same name by Casey McQuiston and marks the feature directorial debut for Tony Award-winner Matthew Lopez ("The Inheritance" and "Some Like It Hot"). Lopez was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his work on the romantic comedy film, which you can listen to below, including his feelings about the film receiving an R-rating, how we came across the book, what's next for him after he's made his first film and more! Please take a listen and be sure to check out the film, which is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Thank you, and enjoy!
