Netflix is reportedly in talks with the Sussexes about extending their partnership. Over the past few weeks, rumours of bankruptcy have surrounded the estranged royals, with claims of failed OTT projects being axed. But according to The Sun, after their original £100 million and five-year deal with Netflix wrapped up this year, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are now believed to be working on a proposal that could have the streamer “biting their hands off” to seal the deal.Prince Harry and Meghan working on Princess Diana’s docAs part of the talks, a Princess Diana documentary is on the list of possible shows. The plan is to release it in 2027, marking 30 years since Diana’s death in Paris. According to a report by The Sun, nothing has been finalised yet, with several proposals still on the table. Under the new deal announced earlier this month, Netflix holds the first rights to any shows Harry and Meghan propose, while also covering the running costs of their production company, Archewell Productions, including staff and online content. Meanwhile, the OTT platform will begin airing the second part of Meghan’s lifestyle series, With Love, Meghan, from Tuesday. The show had received negative reviews during its firts season, but still managed to pull in stronger viewership than many other titles, which secured its return. In addition, the platform has also announced plans for a holiday special in December, alongside a short documentary on Ugandan orphans titled Masaka Kids: A Rhythm Within.Also read: ‘Nothing against Meghan Markle’: Prince Harry hits back at claims of physical fight with Prince Andrew that left him with a bloody noseIt is being reported that Harry is open to working on Diana’s documentary. If he signs on, Netflix bosses are convinced it would be a hit. One insider even claimed, “If Harry wants to do it, Netflix will bite his hand off.” Experts have long pointed out that the Sussexes’ first Netflix hit only worked because the couple went all in on trashing the royals, airing insider drama for the world to binge, which in turn pushed them further out of the family circle, a rift that made brothers (William and Harry) enemies. The Sussexes’ later projects with the streamer fell flat as Netflix was reportedly chasing that same level of intensity. Now, with Diana’s story on the table, a documentary could land as the next big blow to the monarchy.Also read: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to handle Netflix crisis Obama-style as bankruptcy rumours grow; new projects in pipelineHarry was especially close to his mother Diana. He was just 12 when the princess died in the tragic accident. Since then, he’s been fiercely critical of the media circus, calling it the biggest reason he broke away from the royal family, to protect Meghan and their kids from meeting the same fate. He’s often spoken about how deeply her death scarred him. Harry still keeps her memory alive, staying close to his mother’s side of the family, keeping a photo wall of her at home, giving Lilibet the middle name Diana, and recalling moments like walking behind her coffin in 1997. In his memoir Spare, he even revealed a medium once told him, “Your mother is with you… You’re living the life she wanted for you.”Netflix bosses, including content chief Bela Bajaria, have praised the Sussexes, saying they are “influential voices whose stories resonate globally.” Meghan herself recently said she’s “proud to extend the partnership” with Netflix. “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,” Meghan said in a press statement earlier this month.Click for more updates and latest Hollywood News along with Bollywood and Entertainment updates.
