Beloved novel Red, White and Royal Blue is now a Prime Video movie, so what made it into the film version and what was left out?
The Big Picture The much-awaited Red, White & Royal Blue has finally released on Amazon Prime Video last Friday, and so far, it has garnered mostly positive reviews from both fans and critics. This film follows the lives of Alex Claremont-Diaz — the First Son of the United States — and Prince Henry , who, despite not liking each other at first, inevitably falls in love and now must find a way to navigate that, all the while the world is watching closely.
Alex and Nora’s Relationship Is Explored More in the Book The book discusses more of Alex and Nora’s chaotic yet cute relationship. In fact, they actually dated briefly, but later decided they were better off as friends. And instead of Alex kissing two random girls during the New Year’s Eve party, he kisses Nora — which is their tradition. She also played a crucial part in finding out who hacked Alex and Henry’s emails.
Ellen and Oscar Besides not having June around in the movie, another difference about this family is that Ellen Claremont , the President of the United States, and Oscar Diaz are still a power couple — and this means that Leo does not exist in this realm, who, in the books, is Ellen’s partner. While this might not be that big of a difference in terms of its impact on the storyline, it does change the family dynamic.
Who is Miguel? Apart from removing characters, the movie also introduced a new one — which is where Miguel comes into play. He never existed in the books. However, in the movie, he is a pretty interesting person, and an annoying one, more or less. He and Alex had a fling way back, and now, he is a journalist who always tries to snoop his way into exclusive details.
