Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are making waves in the entertainment industry with the announcement of two new nonfiction series under their production banner, Archewell Productions. Since stepping back from their roles as senior working royals, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been focusing on their new life in California and creating powerful content for Netflix.
The first series will showcase The Duchess celebrating the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship. Produced by Sony Pictures Television’s The Intellectual Property Corporation, the series will be helmed by showrunner Leah Hariton and director Michael Steed, known for their work on popular shows like My Next Guest Needs No Introduction and Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown.
The second series will delve into the world of professional polo, a sport close to Prince Harry’s heart as a keen polo player. Shot primarily at the U.S. Open Polo Championship in Florida, the series will explore the grit and passion of the sport, capturing the players and the dedication required to compete at the highest level. Boardwalk Pictures, the production company behind Netflix’s Chef’s Table, will produce this series.
Meghan and Harry’s previous projects for Netflix include the intimate docuseries Harry & Meghan, showcasing their journey post-royalty. With these new series, the royal couple continues to make their mark in the entertainment industry, bringing engaging and insightful content to audiences worldwide.
