While the film continues their love story, the network has new lead actors for the sequel. Field and Smith are replacing Murray Fraser and Parisa Fitz-Henley, who portrayed the couple in Lifetime’s original film.

The new movie comes just a year after Harry and Meghan tied the knot on May 19, 2018. It’s still uncertain whether the film will cover the couple’s pregnancy too.

In a new interview with Vanity Fair, Smith and screenwriter Scarlett Lacey teased what fans can expect in the  sequel. “The wedding certainly looms large,” said Lacey.

“This film deals with the drama of planning a wedding: the moment you’d much rather elope, the moment your family might mess it all up — and they nearly do!” But it’ll also go far beyond saying I do.

“The moment you first wake up as husband and wife, the realities of your new life hitting you hard, the first big fight, the first big make-up,” she continued about what’s ahead.

According to Smith, the film will also explore Meghan and Kate’s realtionship.

“We got to do some stuff with Kate, which I really liked,” said the actor.

“I think one of the biggest things, obviously, about Meghan is that she’s such a supporter of other women and women’s empowerment. That was something I think was important for all of us to focus on, myself included.”
