From Deadline.com: Briarcliff Entertainment has acquired North American distribution rights to new pop musical franchise Verona’s Romeo & Juliet, which will have a wide release on Valentine's Day, 2025.
Yep, franchise, so there's a chance we'll be seeing Rupert's Prince Escalus - and maybe even hearing him sing! - in more than one film!

I mean also thinking about it I just think we all deserve more adaptations where Escalus is played as increasingly furious and barely leashed.
Like the rocking motion that extra metrical beat gives to:
‘I have an interest in your heart’s proceedings
My blood for your rude brawls doth lie a-bleeding’
Played as more broken and angry and the rhyme hitting those hissing screeching ‘ee’ sounds rather than the kind of calm control many give him and then the return to pentameter in the next two lines:
‘But I’ll amerce you with so strong a fine
That you shall all repent that loss of mine’
Where the actor absolutely hammers the consonants and the metrical regularity as a kind of leashing of this rocking rage. BUT it can only be temporary because then he returns to the extra foot with ‘I shall be deaf to pleading and excuses’ and don’t tell me that’s coincidence because he could have used ‘excuse’ GAH I love it so much.
And then by the end, just a bit broken. Like his metrical security is not so much a reflection of certainty as a kind of rote proclamation, a return of the Prince to power as he has not been within the play, but the cost is so damn high.
I just think it would be fun to have a really visibly disturbed Escalus.

Edited because I missed somethings
I feel like this is obvious but a lot of people don't mention how other than the Nurse the Montague and Capulets are symmetrical
There is obviously Lady Montague and Capulet and Lord Capulet and Montague but they also each have one child those being Romeo and Juliet respectfully as well as one Nephew whose parents aren't in the picture apparently, but you know Prince escalus the neutral party in the feud both of his nephews are divided with the family's respectfully. There is one small thing I forgot to mention, Rosaline. Where does she fall into this? Neither it's only ever mentioned that she is a Capulet but seemingly doesn't live with the Capulets as we never see her she is only mention 14 times so what's up with her? (Also no I am not watching that stupid movie on Hulu. I refuse)

Can we, per chance, see Escalus family portrait? (The Prince, your brother, Paris, and, of course, you yourself)
All of you are just too handsome not to be on one painting!

We tried getting a family portrait done when we were younger but for some reason we never tried again

fyi, I have bitten:
romeo, because he ate my bagel
benvolio, for various reasons, but not maliciously
tybalt, because sometimes, thou forgettest thy rapier at home
not juliet, because ewwww, girls
paris, for he is an idiot
prince escalus, when I was only one year old and he was changing my diaper. I barely had teeth back then so I do not know what all the fuss is about
valentine, for he is my brother, and thou hast to fight thy brother
rosaline, because she made romeo cry
aye, I do bite people. next question

Escalus: Look, I don't want Mercutio to die. You don't want Mercutio to die. Let's work together to make sure Mercutio doesn't die.
Benvolio: Fantastic plan, prince, but have you ever fucking met Mercutio?

Today, my tutee hit me with this banger while discussing Romeo and Juliet.
‘Imagine if the Prince had decided to get revenge for Mercutio rather than justice’
And now I CANNOT STOP THINKING ABOUT IT
Like what would it look like? Martial Law? How would it affect his speech? Does he take both Montague and Capulet into custody? Does he have them killed? Does he return to the promise from his first speech that ‘your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace’
I actually think he would be terrifying. I think he would maintain his metrical solidity and it would be chilling. I think Benvolio would try to get him for clemency and be denied with absolute pentametric certainty and repeating images from that first speech. Fire, sickness, bloodied hands, men, beasts …
I … I might have to write this
