‘Young Royals’ Stars on Series Finale’s ‘Biblical’ Decision, That ‘Tom Cruise’ Moment and What Part of the Ending They Initially Thought Was ‘Cringe’


'Young Royals' stars Edvin Ryding and Omar Rudberg break down the series finale of Netflix’s YA queer romance out of Sweden.

In the series finale of Netflix’s queer romance “Young Royals,” Wilhelm ( Edvin Ryding) officially abdicates the throne as the future king of Sweden, effectively handing the crown to his cousin/sometimes rival August (Malte Gårdinger). As if pulled right out of a rom-com, the two smile, shed a few tears and share a kiss before literally riding off into the sunset with each other, Simon’s sister Sarah (Frida Argento) and her best friend Felice (Nikita Uggla). So then, right after one of our last takes, she comes to me in the car and whispers in my ear, “Just remember this is the last time you will ever shoot for ‘Young Royals,’” and then she was just like, “Bye!” I was like, “That’s not helpful!” But I just sat with that, and it worked.
