The first images of Prince Harry’s upcoming Netflix documentary series have been revealed, ending months of speculation regarding his next Hollywood move. Titled POLO, the series offers an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the fast-paced world of the luxury sport, which has been a significant part of Prince Harry’s life for years. The show is set to be released in December and is produced by Harry and Meghan Markle’s media company, Archewell, alongside Boardwalk Pictures, known for sports and lifestyle content.

Netflix released four promotional stills from the series, showcasing the glamorous and competitive world of polo. The images include dramatic shots of players in action and behind-the-scenes glimpses of the care taken with the horses involved in this high-class sport. One still features a trio of horses from the renowned Argentine polo team, La Dolfina, striding into the field.

The new series is seen as a crucial project for Prince Harry, with some commentators, such as Kinsey Schofield, calling it a “last-ditch effort” for Netflix to recoup its investment in the couple’s $100 million deal. Schofield suggested that the series is part of Netflix’s strategy to “squeeze” more content out of the Duke of Sussex, as the platform continues to explore avenues to capitalize on the couple’s star power.

Royal watchers and Sussex supporters alike are eager to see how the series will perform, especially following the polarizing reception of Harry and Meghan, the couple’s previous Netflix series, which aired in 2022. With POLO, Prince Harry is stepping further into the realm of sports documentaries, a genre that has gained significant traction on streaming platforms in recent years.

Prince Harry’s passion for polo is well-known. The sport has long been a favorite of his, and he frequently participates in charity matches, including the prestigious Sentebale Polo Cup, a charity event for young people in Africa that he co-founded in 2006. The series will likely delve into the personal significance of polo for Harry and highlight his deep connections within the polo community, including his friendship with Nacho Figueras, the Argentine polo star often referred to as the “David Beckham of polo.”
