Prince Harry & Meghan Markle May Start Working On A Scripted Movie Soon: 'It's Only A Matter Of Time,' Notes Omid Scobie
Since moving to California, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have announced a few of the things they've been collaborating on with media companies like Netflix, but it looks like the pair have secretly been working on much more than they let on.
While on the "Royally Obsessed" podcast, Finding Freedom coauthor Omid Scobie revealed that people in their inner circle have started talking about their latest showbiz ventures.
"All that was said to me was, 'Oh man, you don't even know the half of what they're working on. They are aiming so high,'" he shared. "I think one thing that may surprise at some point — and this is just my own guess — is where we're going to hear some sort of movie announcement."
"It's only a matter of time before they have acquired the rights to a really incredible story that they're able to bring to life through a movie or a television drama," he noted. "We've heard a lot about the non-scripted work but there is that whole side of the production company that is scripted."

"It's only a matter of time before that comes to life," Scobie emphasized. I think that's really exciting because it's a side of them we've never seen or heard of before but one they're really eager to get into."
The author explained that while the Sussexes are trying to step "into Hollywood a little bit," they want to "do it in a much more impactful and socially conscious way."
So far, Harry has announced he's working on the Netflix docuseries Heart of Invictus, which will follow a group of war vets preparing for the Invictus Games. Meanwhile, the Suits alum is acting as an executive producer on Pearl, an animated children's show, will also air on the streaming service.
"Like many girls her age, our heroine Pearl is on a journey of self-discovery as she tries to overcome life’s daily challenges," shared the mom-of-two. "I’m thrilled that Archewell Productions, partnered with the powerhouse platform of Netflix, and these incredible producers, will together bring you this new animated series, which celebrates extraordinary women throughout history."
