It's never too early for cheesy holiday movies, apparently, because Netflix has announced that a sequel to A Christmas Prince is in the works. The unintentionally hilarious holiday romance, set in a fictitious European nation called Aldovia, became a holiday sensation almost immediately after its release. And, as we all know, you can't hide guilty pleasures from Netflix.
To the 53 people who've watched A Christmas Prince every day for the past 18 days: Who hurt you?

The sequel will be called A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding — but don't go expecting a Prince Harry and Meghan Markle situation. After all, this is a continuation of the movie that shows a grand coronation that's decorated with all the splendor of a second-rate bat mitzvah . . . and god, I can't wait for more.
Netflix posted a teaser for The Royal Wedding on Twitter, and luckily for us all, it's full of tongue-in-cheek references to the most terribly hilarious parts of the first film. A "journalist" typing nonsensical notes into a Pages document? Check. An allusion to jellied meat? Check. Clumsy protagonist whose only choice of footwear is Converse sneakers? Check-mate.
