POLO will be the couple's third project for Netflix since they signed a lucrative deal with the industry titan in 2020.
The Sussexes' debut series Harry & Meghan was a huge hit on the streaming platform and broke several Netflix records.
However, it has been nearly two years since its release in December 2022 and the couple have only produced one other project for Netflix.
Harry released Heart of the Invictus in 2023 but it failed to reach the same level of success as their debut docuseries.

The Duke of Sussex's five-episode series was released in August 2023 and followed the 2022 Invictus Games in The Hague.
The Heart of Invictus documentary for Netflix failed to secure an Emmy award nomination.
It missed out in several categories, including Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series, where Sussex rivals David and Victoria Beckham secured a nomination.
The consideration period for the Emmys spanned from June 1 2023 to May 31 2024.
In February, Netflix confirmed that the Sussexes were working on four projects including a film.
