Netflix’s Star-Studded Event Highlights Hollywood’s Changing Tides 🌟
1. A Night of Hollywood Glitz and Netflix Premieres 🎥
Hollywood’s elite gathered in Los Angeles last night for Netflix’s grand event to showcase its upcoming star-packed season. Big names like Ben Affleck and Tina Fey promoted their latest projects, while exclusive footage revealed upcoming documentaries featuring Victoria Beckham, Eddie Murphy, and Barack Obama.
2. Where Was Meghan Markle? 🤔
Despite being one of Netflix’s most high-profile collaborators, Meghan Markle received little mention at the event. This was surprising, considering the upcoming release of her highly anticipated lifestyle series, "With Love, Meghan", set to premiere in March 2025.
3. Comedian John Mulaney’s Bold Joke About Harry & Meghan 🎤
One of the evening’s most talked-about moments came from comedian John Mulaney, who took a jab at Netflix’s deal with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. During his routine, he quipped:
“Netflix hasn’t given more money to anyone with no clear plan since Harry and Meghan.”
The audience reportedly responded with “roaring laughter and gasps”, signaling a shift in how the couple is perceived in Hollywood.
4. Netflix’s Relationship with Harry & Meghan on Thin Ice? 🔥
Netflix signed a $100 million deal with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in 2020, but their projects have received mixed reactions:
- "Harry & Meghan" Documentary: A massive success with high viewership.
- "Live to Lead": Criticized as “a stream of motivational nonsense.”
- "Polo": Labeled “unintentionally hilarious.”
The release of Meghan’s upcoming show "With Love, Meghan" was delayed, reportedly due to the Los Angeles wildfires. However, insiders speculate that Netflix might be re-editing the series amid lukewarm expectations.
5. Meghan’s Public Image Under Scrutiny 📸
At the event, Vanity Fair portrayed Meghan in a negative light, alleging:
- She was “extremely difficult” to work with.
- Her team is already discussing a tell-all book deal—post-divorce.
However, others defended her, with producer Jean Marie calling her “kind and genuine” and former staff members praising both Harry and Meghan as “compassionate leaders.”
6. What’s Next for Harry & Meghan? 🤷♂️
As Meghan prepares to launch "With Love, Meghan", the question remains:
Can the Sussexes regain their public appeal?
For now, it seems that Netflix and Hollywood are keeping their distance. As one attendee put it:
“It felt like Netflix didn’t care about them at all.”
Whether true or not, Harry and Meghan’s Hollywood journey continues to face challenges. 🚀
