Netflix recently released the highly anticipated docuseries, Harry & Meghan: An African Journey, which followed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on their tour of Africa. The series was an instant hit, breaking Netflix records for viewership. However, despite its success, it appears that Netflix will not be renewing the show for a second season.
The show was part of a larger deal that Harry and Meghan made with Netflix in 2020. The couple signed a multi-year deal with the streaming giant to produce a variety of content, including scripted and unscripted series, documentaries, feature films, and children’s programming.
Though Harry & Meghan: An African Journey will not be returning, that doesn’t mean that we won’t be seeing the royal couple on Netflix in the future. The couple is still under contract with Netflix and could appear in other capacities. It’s possible that we could see them in a different docuseries, a scripted series, or even a feature film.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have made it clear that they are committed to using their platform to create meaningful content that has a positive impact on the world. They have already started work on their first Netflix project, a nature documentary series that will focus on conservation.
It’s unclear when we will see Harry and Meghan’s next Netflix project, but one thing is certain: the royal couple will continue to make an impact on the streaming giant. Though their show may not be returning, their influence on Netflix will remain.
