We know which movie Felipe and Letizia went to see for the Queen’s 52nd birthday

The Queen Letizia turns 52 this Sunday. To celebrate, the consort is expected to have a discreet lunch at the Zarzuela Palace, as reported by various media. Among the guests, in addition to the monarch, will be the Princess Leonorwho made a surprise trip last Friday from Pontevedra to Madrid to be present on her mother’s big day. So, on Friday, perhaps while the heir to the throne was travelling to the capital, the monarch and his consort took advantage of the opportunity to do one of their favourite things in Madrid: go to the cinema.

The kings went to the Ideal cinemas in the capital to see the film Alien: Romulus dDirected by the Uruguayan director Fede Alvarez. “Yesterday the Kings, Felipe and Leticia, came to see ‘Alien’ at the Ideal cinema“, revealed a user on X, formerly Twitter, this Saturday.

The Internet user also criticized Felipe and Letizia for not publicly congratulating Pedro Almodóvar last Saturday when the director from La Mancha won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival for The room next door. “If they want to represent us, they should celebrate the successes of our culture, not just the sporting ones.“, he said.

This supposed departure of the King and Queen in September comes after a summer in which they have barely coincided. The Olympic agenda interrupted their holidays in Palma, since Don Felipe and Doña Letizia only spent two or three days together on the Balearic island. On August 31, the monarch arrived at the wedding of Victoria López-Quesada without the queen and in the company of his sister, the Infanta Cristina.
