The Royal Family is venturing into the streaming era, fulfilling their promise to get closer to the younger audiences during King Charles III’s reign. The King is teaming up with the streaming giant, Netflix, for such a special project, which all the royal followers will be delighted.
On June 19, it was reported that the Monarch of the United Kingdom partnered with actor Idris Elba on a new Netflix documentary to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the King’s trust. The project is a landmark moment for the monarch, who will offer unprecedented access as he reflects on the global impact of the charity he founded in 1976.
It was also reported that the filming will be in the next couple of weeks, with a release date scheduled for autumn 2026. The documentary revolves around how the King’s trust has changed the lives of over 1.3 million young people in the United Kingdom.
King Charles III will likely not sit down for a formal interview, but he will appear in candid conversation with the rest of the contributors throughout the film. The film will be co-produced by Idris Elba’s company, explaining that his project holds a deep significance when he was once a beneficiary of a grant from the Trust, which allowed him to pursue his dream of becoming an actor.
