Before Liz Garbus, Which Director Was Roped In for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix Docuseries?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix docuseries is one of the most
anticipated projects. The show has been making headlines for all the right as

A few days back, Meghan Markle hailed the director of their docuseries, Liz
Garbus, and lavished praises on the Oscar-nominated director for doing a
brilliant job with the story. Markle also defended the content, saying that it
might not be the way they would have told their story

As per the Suits alum, their story is projected through the lens of Garbus.
Meanwhile, it might surprise you that Garbus was not the first choice for
directing the docuseries.

PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE HAD A FALL-OUT WITH THEIR FIRST DIRECTOR

Before Liz Garbus, Oscar-nominated director Garrett Bradley was appointed by
Netflix for the highly anticipated project. Bradley was a perfect choice to helm
the project. She was the one who directed the critically acclaimed show, Naomi
Osaka. It is believed that she was sidelined from the docuseries because of the
difference in opinion with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle regarding the vision.

Bradley was also not okay with the tone of the project. Moreover, she wanted the
Sussexes to film the series at their home, something that Sussexes were not
comfortable doing. 

“Garrett wanted Harry and Meghan to film at home and they were not comfortable
doing that. There were a few sticky moments between them, and Garrett left the
project. Harry and Meghan’s own production company captured as much footage as
they could before Liz Garbus was hired,” Sources said as quoted

bosses

because of the release date of the docuseries. The couple wants the show to
release next year after the memoir. However, the American streaming platform is
keen on running it next month.
