There has been much discussion about what would happen when Prince Harry and Meghan’s initial Netflix deal comes to an end this September. And today, Netflix and the Duke and Duchess have announced that they will be continuing to work with each other in a new multi-year “first look” deal.
“Prince Harry and Meghan, Duke and Duchess of Sussex, announced today with Netflix that they are extending their creative partnership through Archewell Productions with a multi-year, first look deal for film and television projects,” Archewell said in a statement today. “The announcement follows Archewell Productions collaboration with Netflix since 2020, producing content across documentaries, scripted series, films, sports and lifestyle programming. Archewell Productions has released Polo, With Love, Meghan, Heart of Invictus, Harry & Meghan and Live to Lead.”
The news comes after weeks of reports suggestion that their deal would not be renewed. T&C previously highlighted that these reports had been premature and that talks were underway.
“We’re proud to extend our partnership with Netflix and expand our work together to include the As ever brand,” Meghan said in a statement today. “My husband and I feel inspired by our partners who work closely with us and our Archewell Productions team to create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision.”
Projects to come under the partnership include With Love, Meghan Season 2, which will debut on Netflix later this month. There will also be a special holiday episode of the program this December, described by Archewell as “a magical holiday celebration.” “Together, friends and family deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts, and share lots of laughs – with simple how-tos to follow at home. It’s a holiday wonder with warmth, tradition, and a generous dose of joy,” the organization said in a statement.
Other projects coming up include Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within, which will debut on Netflix later this year. The documentary-short film will take viewers to an orphanage in Uganda’s Masaka region. Archewell Productions is also said to be in “active development on additional projects with Netflix that span a variety of content genres, including the feature adaptation of the bestselling novel by Carley Fortune, Meet Me At The Lake.”
Netflix’s Chief Content Officer, Bela Bajaria, today described Harry and Meghan as “influential voices whose stories resonate with audiences everywhere.” Netflix is also passive partner with Meghan’s product range As Ever with more products expected.
