LGBTQ+ romcom Red, White & Royal Blue has arrived on Prime Video, but what age rating has it been given? <\/p>
One of the big streaming film releases this weekend is Prime Video romcom Red, White & Royal Blue<\/a> \u2013 which is based on the bestselling LGBTQ+ romance novel of the same name by Casey McQuiston.<\/p>\n The film stars Nicholas Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez as a British royal and the son of the US President respectively, as they find themselves falling in love despite their long-running rivalry.<\/p>\n In our review<\/a> of the film, we called it \u201cthe sexy gay romcom we\u2019ve been waiting for\u201d, and singled out the \u201cauthenticity\u201d of the \u201csurprisingly realistic sex scenes\u201d for particular praise.<\/p>\n And so, given the film doesn\u2019t shy away from showing sexual content, you might be wondering what age rating it has been given. Read on for everything you need to know.<\/p> The film is listed with a 12 rating on Prime Video \u2013 meaning that it is considered suitable for any viewer aged 12 or above.<\/p>\n As it is a straight-to-streaming film that will not play in UK cinemas, the film is rated by Prime Video itself rather than the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) directly \u2013 although the two organisations announced in March this year<\/a> that they had entered into an \u201cenhanced collaboration\u201d.<\/p>\n The content advisory section on Prime Video reads that the film contains: \u201cNudity,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>alcohol use,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>smoking,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>foul language and sexual content.\u201d<\/p>\n Interestingly, the film has been given a more strict R-rating by the Motion Pictures Association in the US, meaning that anyone under the age of 17 should only watch if accompanied by an adult. The reasons given were: \u201clanguage, some sexual content, and partial nudity.\u201d<\/p>\nRed, White & Royal Blue age rating<\/strong><\/h2>\n
