Meghan Markle reportedly wants total control as Netflix movie stalls
Episode 8 min 28s
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s long-discussed Netflix film projects appear to be moving slowly — and insiders say creative control may be the sticking point. According to new reporting, Meghan is interested in directing one of the couple’s planned Netflix films herself and wants approval over key decisions including the script, casting and marketing. Studios are reportedly wary about handing that level of authority to a first-time director, which may be slowing progress on projects such as the adaptation of the bestselling novel Meet Me at the Lake.

We also examine growing commentary around the Sussex brand, including calls for the couple to film a more personal behind-the-scenes Netflix docuseries showing their life in Montecito.
Plus: the latest chapter in the so-called “jam wars” as Meghan’s As Ever lifestyle brand pushes spreads and chocolates globally, a blistering on-air taste test from Megyn Kelly who called the chocolates “absolutely disgusting,” and a Wall Street Journal look at Prince Harry’s quieter life in California — where friends say he sometimes appears adrift while Meghan pursues new ventures.
