Netflix boss about Duchess Meghan
That is why Prince Harry’s wife is “underestimated”
Netflix-Co-CEO Ted Sarandos explained in an interview why Duchess Meghan is “underestimated” for him.
Ted Sarandos (60), Chief Content Officer and Co-CEO at Netflix, spoke about working with Duchess Meghan (43) and husband Prince Harry (40). In 2020, the couple had completed a supposedly $ 100 million deal with the streaming service. Several formats followed, including a polo documentary and the last published lifestyle series “With Love, Meghan”.
In it, the Duchess of Sussex receives prominent guests such as actress Mindy Kaling (45) or Abigail Spencer (43). The eight-part series, which fell through many critics, shows the former “Suits” actress, among other things, in cooking, organizing child-friendly tea parties, hiking, hiking and making harvest baskets. A second season should follow. Meghan also advertises in the episodes for her lifestyle brand “As ever”. “We are a passive partner in Meghan’s company, and it is currently a big discovery model in e-commerce for us,” explains Sarandos to participate in the streaming service in Meghan’s brand, which is to bring its products to the US shelves from spring 2025.
“People are fascinated by Meghan”
When asked why Meghan was the right person on which the streaming giant relied, the Co-CEO said: “I think Meghan’s influence on culture is underestimated. When we published the trailer for the documentary series ‘Harry & Meghan’, everything that could be seen on the screen was dissected for days in the press.” For example, Meghan’s shoes had counted, “which were sold out all over the world. The Hermès blanket, which was on the chair behind it, was sold out all over the world. People are fascinated by Meghan Markle. She and Harry are too dismissed.”
There is a lot of speculation about whether Netflix will extend Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan’s contract this year, who is similar to the contract with Barack (63) and Michelle Obama (61). As asked about the Obamas, Sarandos said: “I don’t want to comment on the extensions of partnerships. In general, the contracts we have concluded are tailor -made and tailored to the performance. We sketch what we will do together in the next five years and pack it in a contract.”
