Harry and Meghan sought Hollywood roles before Megxit

New footage shows Prince Harry and Meghan Markle discussing acting opportunities with Disney executives at the Lion King premiere in July 2019, just six months before they stepped back from royal duties. Harry asked Disney's director Jon Favreau about voiceover work, while also promoting Meghan's skills to Disney CEO Bob Iger. This occurred while they were still working royals, which typically prohibited them from commercial activities. Following their departure from royal life, Meghan signed a voiceover deal with Disney, and the couple later secured an £80 million deal with Netflix. Their Hollywood ventures have had mixed success, with some projects performing well and others failing to attract audiences.
