Netflix also produced the less popular but generally well-regarded “Heart of Invictus,” which focused on Harry’s international games for wounded service men and women. But other projects were shelved or are nowhere close to production, The Wrap said.
“Taking on Harry and Meghan was a great coup for Netflix,” U.K.-based public relations and branding expert Mark Borkowski told The Wrap. “It probably got a lot of eyeballs and subscriptions, but they (Harry and Markle) never delivered.”
While in the audience at the Golden Globe Awards in January, Sarandos was put on the spot for Netflix’s relationship with Harry and Meghan. In his monologue, host Jo Koy said that best actress nominee Imelda Staunton had done such a good job playing Queen Elizabeth II in “The Crown” that Harry had called her to ask for money.
