- In the aftermath of the resounding triumph of Amazon's 'Red, White & Royal Blue,' @landolakes1987 spoke with the film's director and screenwriter Matthew Lopez, alongside the book's author and co-screenwriter, Casey McQuiston. McQuiston, who revealed that the realization of their novel hitting the big screen remains surreal, emphasized the awe-inspiring fidelity of the adaptation to their imaginative vision.
Director Matthew Lopez candidly shared his immediate connection to McQuiston's work, expressing an irresistible impulse to bring their story to life on screen. With a heartfelt admission of "love at first sight," Lopez's passion for the project shone through.
Describing the journey from inception to collaboration as akin to capturing lightning in a bottle, McQuiston's sentiments echoed the profound impact of the LGBTQ+ project.
❤️🤍💙 thank you, beautiful interview
Always a joy to hear Matthew and Casey talk about RWRB. 🧡🧡🧡
I so love the side characters and would love to see their stories, as envisioned by Casey and brought to the screen by Matthew. Start with Amy. Even have a redemption arc for Miguel, where we see him hurt by Alex's rejection - even though he was partially responsible - but eventually meets his love, too (the waiter in the cake scene?) (Stunned by how inclusion the whole movie is, with staff, etc. so non-traditional. And how natural it felt, even to the point that many people probably haven't noticed it.)
Need to wear sunglasses to watch this interview - two such BILLIANT talents!
it's interesting listening to these interviews now and knowing a sequel is in development, considering they couldn't announce the sequel until that night at the screening.
Thanks for this interview after months of having none! I'm so glad this movie is finally having the attention it deserves! ❤️🤍💙
EXACTLY! About time.
