According to reports, the long-awaited docuseries about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, directed by Liz Garbus, who was nominated for an Academy Award, will debut on Netflix in December 2022.
In September 2020, Meghan Markle, 41, and Prince Harry, 38, became the first royal couple to sign a multi-year contract with Netflix. According to a report by the New York Times, the production hub of the California-based couple, which was later given the name Archewell Productions, would produce only documentaries, docuseries, feature films, scripted shows, and children’s programming for the widely used platform.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Netflix Docuseries Will Reportedly Premiere in December
During an interview with Variety in October, Meghan gave a small preview of some of the content that viewers might anticipate seeing in the docuseries. “It’s nice to be able to trust someone with our story — a seasoned director whose work I’ve long admired — even if it means it may not be the way we would have told it,” Meghan said of collaborating with Garbus. “But that’s not why we’re telling it.
We trust our story to someone else, meaning it will go through their lens.” “It’s interesting. My husband has never worked in this industry before,” She continued while referring to the entertainment industry. “For me, having worked on Suits, it’s so amazing to be around so much creative energy and to see how people work together and share their points of view. That’s been fun.”
At the Invictus Games in April, which were held in The Hague, cameras followed Meghan and Harry around. This was most likely a unique feature of the prince’s adaptive sports competition for injured, sick, and wounded service personnel and veterans.
The Invictus Games Foundation announced in April 2021 that a documentary series produced by Archewell Productions would be available on Netflix and would be based on the significant event. Heart of Invictus is the working title for the program, which would follow competitors as they prepared for the Invictus Games to be held in The Hague in 2022.
It has been revealed that Oscar-winning British director Orlando von Einsiedel and producer Joanna Natasegara will be directing the project. Because Prince Harry’s memoir is scheduled to be released onto bookstore shelves on January 10, 2023, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may expect a very busy winter. At the end of the previous month, Penguin Random House stated that the prince would share his tale in Spare, a memoir approximately 416 pages long, which Harry recalls with “raw, unflinching honesty.”
The book’s title, which was supposed to come out late this year, clearly references Harry’s former role in the royal family. As the second son of then-Prince Charles and Princess Diana, Harry was often called the “spare” to Prince William, who was the heir. Now, Prince William’s heir is his 9-year-old son, Prince George. “This is Harry’s story at last.” The publishers said.
