London, UK – Moving to Britain was supposed to be a fresh start for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, but it may have cost them their Hollywood dreams.

According to sources cited by Page Six, several of the Sussexes' projects appear to be on the brink after their move.

Two film productions that the couple hoped to develop with Netflix have reportedly shown no discernible progress for months.

There's also no new information on a currently untitled polo drama that is supposedly in the works.

One source, however, saw no cause for alarm: "It's Hollywood. People know how this town works, and things are not made in a day."

Harry is also said to be working on a documentary honoring his late mother, Princess Diana, timed for the 30th anniversary of her death next year.

It remains unclear whether Netflix will be involved in the project.

While the Sussexes' film projects seem to be dragging on, the couple has also had to absorb another setback.

Harry and Meghan's production company suffers shock exits

Chanel Pysnik, the longtime head of the non‑fiction division at Harry and Meghan's production company Archewell Productions, has left the firm.

She was one of the company's earliest employees and was, among other things, responsible for the Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan.

While a replacement for her role is presumably being sought, it was only a few weeks ago that news broke that Archewell Productions plans to downsize its staff.

In addition, other employees – including the chief marketing officer, the production manager, and the head of content – have already departed.

Whether the Sussexes' planned projects will ultimately come to fruition remains to be seen.
