Netflix has proved that no name is too big for the axe: It's put a pin in Pearl, the planned animated series from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
According to Archewell's website, where details still remain, Pearl promised to follow the "heroic adventures of a 12-year-old girl who is inspired by influential women from history."
Markle was an executive producer on the project, along with David Furnish, while Amanda Rynda, whose credits include DC Super Hero Girls, had been booked as showrunner.
No, according to Deadline, whose sources indicate that Netflix is still confident that the partnership with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will prove fruitful.
Pearl was still in development, with production yet to begin. No voice cast had been announced as yet. It seems likely that the series' cost, which was pitched at more than $100 million, was mounting up and Netflix have balked.
Pearl wasn't the only animated series that Netflix dropped over the weekend, it also dropped Dino Daycare and the South Asian-inspired adventure Boons and Curses, both of which were in production.
Taken in isolation, Netflix's decision to not move forward with three animated series isn't a crushing blow, but as part of the team-up with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, which was announced with such fanfare in 2020, the move is embarrassing and will attract headlines all over the world, all of which will make reference to Netflix's current struggles.
The streaming giant desperately needs some good news. It also needs to stop the drip, drip, drip strategy of canceling a different show every day, otherwise its stock price, already battered from the drop in subscribers, will only go one way.
