Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are adding another project to their growing Netflix slate. This time, a scripted drama set in the world of elite polo.
According to Deadline, the currently untitled series will take place in Wellington, Florida, a hub for high-profile equestrian culture. The show will center on rival polo teams and the families behind them, leaning into the kind of wealth, competition, and interpersonal drama that practically writes itself. The project builds on Harry’s long-standing connection to the sport. The royal has played polo for years, often participating in charity matches, and previously led the docuseries POLO, which debuted on Netflix in 2024.
The new series will be produced through the couple’s Archewell Productions alongside Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage of Fake Empire, signaling a more traditional, scripted approach to storytelling. It also marks the latest development in Meghan and Harry’s ongoing multi-year deal with Netflix, which includes upcoming adaptations like The Wedding Date and Meet Me at the Lake.
The announcement arrives amid recent speculation about the couple’s relationship with the streaming giant. A report suggested tensions between the two parties, but both Netflix and representatives for the Sussexes have pushed back on those claims.
For now, the focus is on what’s next, and with a glossy setting, built-in stakes, and a world rarely explored on screen, their polo drama could be their most conventional (and potentially most watchable) project yet.
