In a move that defies recent speculation, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have confirmed they are extending their collaboration with Netflix.
Reports earlier this year suggested their five-year, $100 million deal — signed in 2020 — would end in 2025. Instead, Netflix has announced a new multi-year, first-look agreement with the couple’s Archewell Productions for both film and television projects.
Meghan, 44, said in a statement:
“We’re proud to extend our partnership with Netflix and expand our work together to include the As Ever brand. 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.”
Upcoming Projects
The renewed deal comes with several new titles. Later this year, Meghan’s cooking series With Love, Meghan will return for a second season, alongside a Christmas special filmed in Montecito. Netflix describes the holiday program as a “magical celebration” filled with decorating, feasts, handmade gifts, and simple at-home tips.
Archewell Productions will also produce a short documentary titled Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within, highlighting an orphanage in Uganda’s Masaka region where children affected by the HIV/AIDS crisis find joy and healing through dance.
Another confirmed project is Meet Me at the Lake, a romance feature based on Carley Fortune’s bestselling novel.
Past Work and Mixed Reception
Harry and Meghan’s previous Netflix work includes the 2022 documentary series Harry & Meghan, which became one of the platform’s most-watched nonfiction titles, Harry’s 2024 polo documentary, and the debut season of With Love, Meghan earlier this year.
Despite a drop in audience rankings — with With Love, Meghan recently sitting at 383 on Netflix’s six-month engagement list — Netflix executives remain confident. Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria said:
“Harry and Meghan are influential voices whose stories resonate with audiences everywhere. The response to their work speaks for itself… We’re excited to continue our partnership and to entertain our members together.”
