Prince Harry's new series will "pull back the curtain" on the sport of polo according to Netflix.
The series which will be released in December and is titled Polo is the Duke of Sussex's latest project for the streaming giant.
Netflix said regarding the upcoming programme: "The series will pull back the curtain on the sport, known primarily for its aesthetic and social scene, capturing the full story of what it takes to compete at its highest level."
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a lucrative deal with the streaming giant in 2020 after stepping down as working royals.

The Sussexes are working on separate projects for Netflix despite signing their deal as a couple.
Their 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 not produced another joint project for Netflix.
Harry did release Heart of the Invictus in 2023 but it failed to reach the same level of success as their debut docuseries.

The Duke of Sussex will not feature heavily in the Polo programme, according to a source.
Instead, it will centre around Harry's close friend, polo player, Nacho Figueras.
A source told the Mail: "Any reasonable person tuning into a show about polo made by Prince Harry would expect Harry to take a starring role.
"That he’s not is hugely disappointing for Netflix. Let's face it, polo isn't exactly a mainstream sport so the attraction would have been watching Harry. Without him, it's marginal at best.

"The Netflix deal expires next year, so the Sussexes need a big hit. This sounds like a big nothing burger."
Another insider said: "For a show about a sport of kings, polo barely features any royalty. It’s not the Harry show, it’s the Nacho show."
While a third source is quoted as saying: "Nice of Harry to do his mate a favour."
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's contract with Netflix expires in 2025.
