Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the first woman President of the United States (Uma Thurman), and Britain’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) have a lot in common: good looks, charisma, popularity…and total disdain for each other.
But as Alex and Henry’s icy relationship unexpectedly begins to thaw into a tentative friendship, the friction between them sparks something deeper than they
ever expected—romance.
Tony Award-winning playwright Matthew López discusses the extensive search for the perfect set of actors to play Alex and Henry, how he convinced the producers that he was the best person to helm the film, and the new golden age for rom coms.
