Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Announce New Netflix Docuseries ‘Live to Lead’

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have a new Netflix docuseries coming out! Only this one isn’t about their relationship as a couple (and decision to step down as senior royals) and will instead focus on “extraordinary leaders” who are reflecting on their legacies and sharing “messages of courage, compassion, humility, hope, and generosity.”

The series, which is inspired by the legacy of Nelson Mandela, is executive produced by Harry and Meghan and will feature interviews from Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Greta Thunberg, Bryan Stevenson, Jacinda Ardern, Siya Kolisi, Gloria Steinem, and Albie Sachs. Based on the trailer, Meghan and Harry themselves will also be featured:

“This was inspired by Nelson Mandela, who once said, ‘What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived,’” Harry says in the teaser, while Meghan adds, “It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.”

Live to Lead is part of the Sussexes’ overall deal with Netflix, which will see them helm several projects. In a statement given at the time their Netflix deal was announced, Harry and Meghan said, “Our lives, both independent of each other and as a couple, have allowed us to understand the power of the human spirit: of courage, resilience, and the need for connection. Through our work with diverse communities and their environments to shining a light on people and causes around the world, our focus will be on creating content that informs but also gives hope. As new parents, making inspirational family programming is also important to us, as is powerful storytelling through a truthful and relatable lens. We are pleased to work with Ted and the team at Netflix, whose unprecedented reach will help us share impactful content that unlocks action.”
