Attention Red, White, & Royal Blue fans! Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine have shared brand-new behind-the-scenes photos.
On 9 November, the longest actor’s strike in Hollywood history came to an end after SAG-AFTRA reached a deal with the AMPTP.
“After 118 days on strike, we are set to change the future of our industry with a transformative contract that includes gains for every category of SAG-AFTRA member who works this contract,” the actor’s union wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter).
“This revolutionary agreement achieves major breakthroughs in addressing compensation via residuals and protections from generative artificial intelligence technology while reaffirming the role human performers play in the production of film, television and streaming entertainment.”
Since the news was announced, an array of actors have flocked to social media to promote their films and TV series released during the strike –including the iconic leads of the hit LGBTQIA+ rom-com Red, White, & Royal Blue.
In one of three Instagram posts, Zakhar Perez praised the actors’ union for securing a deal before delivering a heartfelt message to fans.
“A standing ovation for SAG-AFTRA on securing this monumental deal representing a new paradigm for actors. The 118 days of steadfast commitment and sacrifice have scripted a new chapter of resilience and triumph,” The Kissing Booth star wrote.
“Overwhelmed with gratitude for everyone who joined the journey of ‘RWRB’ and allowed it to touch your lives. Thank you for embracing me as your Alex; it’s been an honour to bring his story to your screens.”

The post also included an array of BTS content, including a cheeky photo of him covered in cake and a snapshot of Uma Thurman lounging on set.
Galitzine echoed similar sentiments in his own Instagram post, which featured a range of adorable selfies and two TikTok fan cams of his character, Prince Henry.
“The love that Henry has received has been one of the most heartwarming things to watch,” the Bottoms star wrote.
“It’s been difficult to not talk about him. So thank you for seeing him for all he is. He was a joy to bring to life.”

In addition to Zakhar Perez and Galitzine, fans were treated to BTS photo dumps from other RWRB stars like Rachel Hilson, Aneesha Sheth, Thomas Flynn and Ellie Bamber.
Since uploading their posts, fans have taken to social media to express their excitement over the cast promoting the beloved film.
One X (formerly known as Twitter) user wrote: “I have no words. I’m crying like an idiot we’ve been waiting for so long for updates and it’s happening!”
Another fan posted: “Love seeing these actors get to promote their work again. So glad the strike is over!!”
Based on Casey McQuiston’s acclaimed novel, Red, White & Royal Blue follows the passionate enemies-to-lovers romance between Alex (Zakhar Perez), the son of America’s first female president (Thurman), and Henry (Galitzine), a British prince.
Shortly after its August premiere, the film received universal acclaim for its faithfulness to the source material and the dynamic chemistry between Zakhar Perez and Galitzine.
It’s also earned a certified fresh rating of 75% on Rotten Tomatoes.
