Meghan Markle, Prince Harry unveil new project tied to her past
The Duchess of Sussex's sentimental past fuels her next big project
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are working on a new project as executive producer.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are gearing up to work on a new documentary in which will showcase a sentimental part of Meghan's past, story of four girls scout.
The documentary, titled Cookie Queens, chronicles “a coming-of-age story about the joys, pressures, and pain points woven into one of America’s most cherished rituals: Girl Scout Cookie season,” according to Deadline.
Meghan and Harry's new project will be directed by Alysa Nahmias and will be premiere at Sundance in 2026.
The synopsis of the doc read, "Captivating, candid, and full of heart, the film follows four girls ages 5 to 12 and their families as they navigate the annual whirlwind of selling, striving and succeeding.”
"For these Girl Scouts, selling cookies isn’t just about Thin Mints and sisterhood — it’s a crash course in entrepreneurship. Behind the smiles and cookie boxes lie real pressure: long hours, ambitious sales goals, and the weight of high expectations. Nahmias crafts a bold, vibrant, observational portrait that honors the girls’ perspectives and illuminates the emotional and intellectual stakes of their experiences," the description of the story continued.
Cookie Queens holds a special place for Meghan as she herself was a Girl Scout while growing up in California.
"As a former Girl Scout myself, with my mom as my troop leader, I have a personal affinity for this film and am proud that all our conversations and collaboration have led to Archewell Productions partnering with this award-winning team to executive produce this incredibly captivating documentary,” Meghan said in a statement.
"When we first viewed the early footage of this documentary, it was immediately something we wanted to be involved in," she added.
