Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Eye Target Diana Legacy in Bold New Documentary

According to reports, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are considering a very personal documentary on Princess Diana as part of their recently extended 'first-look' agreement with Netflix. The project is anticipated to be released in 2027, the 30th anniversary of Diana's death, though nothing has been confirmed. According to Netflix insiders, the company would "bite his hand off" to obtain the project if the Sussexes proceed. To fulfil the deadline, production planning and filming would have to start as soon as possible.

First-Look Deal and Creative Strategy

Through their Archewell Productions label, the streamer has exclusive precedence to consider their project proposals because to their lengthy connection with Netflix. The Diana project is creating the most news, but this extended agreement also includes a holiday special, the second season of 'With Love, Meghan,' and a brief documentary about Ugandan orphans called 'Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within.'

By fusing personal stories with historical material, this planned documentary may present Princess Diana's story through Prince Harry's eyes—possibly as executive producer and narrator. According to sources, Netflix appreciates Harry's emotional bond and distinct viewpoint because it believes it will strike a deep chord with viewers.

High Stakes and Emotional Legacy 

Princess Diana's lasting legacy may be at the center of such a movie, which could become a global phenomenon. Both as a memorial and as a crucial period in forming public perception, Harry's previous statements of doubt over the circumstances of her death and his open observations in Spare show how emotionally intense the project could be.

If this documentary is made, it might change how Diana's legacy is portrayed and who gets to tell her story, in addition to honouring her life.
