Now that he's moved to Hollywood, it's only fitting that Prince Harry makes his official Netflix debut. The Duke of Sussex is taking part in the new upcoming documentary Rising Phoenix, which tells the story of some of the Paralympics.
"The Duke is proud to have been one of the people contributed to this film, which is a unique and powerful documentary that hopes to change the way people view disability — and tell the incredible story of the Paralympics," a spokesperson for Prince Harry said about the appearance.
In the trailer, Harry says: "There isn’t anything else in the world that can bring you back from the darkest places than sport."
Prince Harry's Invictus Games, founded in 2014, is a competition for wounded veterans, giving him a personal connection to the Paralympics.
