Harry And Meghan's Hollywood GAMBLE: "They Don't Know What They're Doing" Says Kevin O'Sullivan

In the midst of a Hollywood strike, Harry and Meghan are stepping in to save the day. The royal couple has acquired the film rights to a bestselling book in an effort to solidify their presence in Tinseltown. This marks a significant shift for the couple, who have previously focused on personal documentaries but are now venturing into the realm of fictional storytelling. Despite facing some setbacks in Los Angeles, including parting ways with Spotify after just one season of Meghan's podcast, the Sussexes are determined to make their mark in the entertainment industry.

The book they have chosen to adapt into a film is "Meet Me at the Lake," a romantic novel that explores themes of love, childhood trauma, and personal growth. The story bears some resemblance to the Duke and Duchess' own experiences, with echoes of their pasts intertwined within the narrative. Set in Toronto, where Meghan previously starred in the legal drama "Suits," the novel has captured the attention of Carly Fortune, its author. Fortune revealed on Twitter that she was moved to tears by Harry and Meghan's wedding in 2018, making the decision to collaborate with them an easy one.

While some may question the couple's foray into producing, it is important to note that they are not alone in this venture. As part of their £100 million deal with Netflix, Harry and Meghan have established their own production company and are working alongside experienced industry professionals. This collaboration allows them to leverage the expertise of others while still having creative input. However, the ongoing writer's strike and actor's strike pose potential challenges to the project's progress.
