Netflix works hard, but the Netflix collaborators need to work harder since things are not at the same level anymore. With the influx of top-tier shows and movies, real-life documentaries and docu-shows have tough competition to beat. Thus all heads have turned to the record-breaking royal bombshell featuring Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The duo embarked on an anti-royal journey ever since they called it quits with the palace. And their never-ending truth bombs exposing the royal family, its ethos, and cold manners aggravated by the rapacious media hit the sky with docuseries release. However, it seems like that was not enough. 

Industry sources have revealed to The Sun publication that the American streaming giant is in quest of more must-watches by the couple. The six-part-docuseries had also accounted for up to about half of the 100 million dollar deal with Netflix. Thus, the couple still has the remnant of the 40,000,000 with the giant. Sources have added their forthcoming content as to be of “real interest” if they want to proceed further with the deal.

The media giant, although wishes for more stirring content, is quite happy with the partnership with the Sussexes so far. There is reportedly “no question of a headline-grabbing public parting of the way” between Netflix and Archewell as things have worked wonders for both parties so far. Unlike the much-highlighted unhappy Spotify split, Netflix is firm in proceeding with the couple on positive terms.

The upcoming projects by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are intact, says Netflix

The couple signed a multi-million dollar deal with the streamer in the wake of the infamous Megxit. The deal first resulted in the aforementioned bombshell, which was soon followed by another documentary called Live To Lead. Their star-studded series had a positive message to deliver to society, having drawn inspiration from the well-known African social activist Nelson Mandela.

Following the same, Netflix has another true-story-based documentary coming up having Prince Harry in the epicenter. Unlike any of his previous tell-all projects, this would narrate the story of his Invictus Games and its story right from scratch. There were many controversies around the same. However, Netflix officials claimed the documentary is still intact and is all set for a summer release later this year.
