Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Developing New, Polo-Focused Drama for Netflix
The drama expands on Prince Harry’s passion for polo, focusing on rival teams and family dynasties in Wellington, Florida, under the Sussexes’ Archewell Productions.
- Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, are executive producing a scripted polo drama for Netflix, partnering their Archewell Productions with production company Fake Empire on an 'upstairs downstairs' story set in Wellington, Florida.
- Harry's 2024 Netflix docuseries Polo, which followed competitors at the U.S. Open Polo Championship in Wellington over five episodes and featured his friend Nacho Figueras, inspired the scripted adaptation despite running for only one season.
- Written by Francisca X. Hu, the untitled drama centers on rival polo families' messy dynamics, with executive producers including Meghan, Archewell's Tracy Ryerson, and Fake Empire's Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage.
- Netflix Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria defended the partnership last week, stating 'We still have a relationship with them. We have movies in development with them. We have an amazing doc with them.'
- The project arrives amid scrutiny following Netflix's pullout from Markle's lifestyle brand As Ever and the two-season limit on With Love, Meghan, though the couple's 2025 'first-look' deal allows them to pitch projects elsewhere if Netflix declines.
