Prince Harry's documentary about the Invictus Games has begun airing…… on Hulu, a move that seems to challenge Netflix, where he and his wife, Meghan, have an ongoing five-year contract. Titled Prince Harry's Mission: Life, Family And The Invictus Games, this unexpected special became available on the Disney-owned platform Hulu recently, based on Harry's interviews with ABC News in Canada. During these interviews, including a segment on Good Morning America on February 16, Harry expressed his commitment to the Invictus Games and discussed his recent visit to the UK following King Charles's cancer diagnosis.his development caught Netflix by surprise, with a senior Netflix source indicating that while Harry and Meghan are still contracted with Netflix, the release of the documentary on Hulu was unexpected. A senior TV news producer noted that Harry must have been aware of and approved the use of his interview for the Hulu documentary.Speculation regarding the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's relationship with Netflix has intensified, especially after the couple relaunched their business and charitable initiatives on their new Sussex.com website, which notably omits direct mention of Netflix in the Archewell productions section.Insiders suggest there's growing dissatisfaction from both sides regarding the Netflix agreement, signed in late 2020 and reportedly worth $100 million. However, Netflix's financial commitment is said to be around $3 million, covering Archewell's production company overheads, with additional earnings contingent on project deliveries.To date, the Sussexes have released a hit documentary, Harry & Meghan, and a film about the Invictus Games titled Heart of Invictus. They also plan to adapt the romance novel Meet Me At The Lake into a film, though it's still in the preliminary stages without a script or writer. According to Netflix executive Bela Bajaria, other projects are in the "early early stages" of development. It's estimated that so far, Harry and Meghan may have received about $20 million from Netflix, leading some to believe the deal with the streaming service may not be as lucrative as initially thought.Donald Trump has expressed that Prince Harry would not receive any protection from him if Trump were to win a second term in the presidency, due to what Trump perceives as Harry's betrayal of Queen Elizabeth. This declaration was made during Trump's speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference, where he criticized the Biden administration's favorable treatment of Prince Harry since his relocation to California with Meghan Markle in 2020. Trump's comments are particularly pointed following Harry's recent consideration of American citizenship, as mentioned in a Good Morning America interview, despite being unclear about what has been deterring him.
