Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, have announced a new scripted drama series for Netflix that will be set in the world of high-stakes polo in Wellington, Florida. The show, which will be co-produced by the couple's Archewell Productions, will reportedly focus on the "messy dynamics" between two rival polo teams and the families that lead them.

Why it matters

This new project continues the Sussexes' ongoing creative partnership with Netflix, which they first established in 2020 with a multi-year deal to produce films, documentaries, and other content for the streaming platform. The polo-centered drama series also aligns with Prince Harry's longstanding passion for the equestrian sport, which he has highlighted in previous projects like the 2024 docuseries "Polo."

The details
