On Monday, Netflix and Archewell Productions announced they were extending their creative partnership with a multiyear, first-look deal that covers all of Harry and Meghan's film and television projects.The deal includes season two of "With Love, Meghan," a holiday special, and new As Ever products.Here's everything we know about Harry and Meghan's future with Netflix so far.A new phase with NetflixArchewell Productions' new agreement with Netflix is slightly different than the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's 2020 deal with the streamer, which was reported to have granted Netflix exclusive rights to the couple's film and TV work for $100 million.Instead, Netflix will essentially have first dibs on any film or television project Archewell creates, but Harry and Meghan will also be able to shop the projects to other companies if Netflix chooses not to pick them up.Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in Colombia in August 2024.Eric Charbonneau/Archewell Foundation via Getty ImagesNetflix similarly transitioned its exclusive deal with Barack and Michelle Obama's production company, Higher Ground, into a multiyear, first-look deal in 2024, indicating a larger shift in strategy for the streamer.In July, multiple outlets reported that Archewell and Netflix's original deal wouldn't be renewed, leading to questions about Harry and Meghan's future with the streamer, though neither company ever confirmed the reports. Still, while the Duke and Duchess' docuseries "Harry & Meghan" and Meghan's lifestyle series "With Love, Meghan" performed well on Netflix, some of their other projects, like the docuseries "Polo" and "Live to Lead," didn't hit with viewers.In addition to the first-look deal, Netflix will continue to partner with Meghan on As Ever, her lifestyle business. The brand released its first rosés over the summer, and it has more drops with new products coming later this year.Meghan said in a statement that she and Harry were "proud" to continue their working relationship with Netflix."We're proud to extend our partnership with Netflix and expand our work together to include the As Ever brand," she said. "My husband and I feel inspired by our partners who work closely with us and our Archewell Productions team to create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision."What's next from Archewell and NetflixNetflix and Archewell Productions are developing multiple projects together, including season two of "With Love, Meghan," which will premiere in August.Netflix said that the lifestyle series had become its "most-watched culinary show" since it aired in March 2025, amassing over 5 million viewers. Like season one, season two will see Meghan cooking and working on DIY projects with special guests, though Netflix has yet to announce who will appear in the coming episodes.In December, Netflix and Archewell will also release "With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration," a holiday special.Meghan Markle on "With Love, Meghan."NetflixAlthough Archewell Productions is Harry and Meghan's media company, Netflix's investment in "With Love, Meghan" and As Ever aligns with the divide-and-conquer strategy the Duke and Duchess seem to have adopted in the past year, with Harry focusing on philanthropic endeavors while Meghan leans into her lifestyle era. Harry was largely absent from "With Love, Meghan," which experts told Business Insider was a wise move from the duchess.In addition to Meghan's show, Netflix will air "Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within," a documentary short produced by Campfire Studios in association with Archewell Productions, in the second half of 2025.Archewell Productions is also working on "Meet Me at the Lake," a film adaptation of Carley Fortune's bestselling novel of the same name. The production company bought the rights to the film back in 2023, though it hasn't announced any updates, like a director, screenwriter, cast, or release date, since.Read the original article on Business Insider
