While Prince Harry may consider selling the film rights to his recently released memoir, "The Duke of Sussex," it does not guarantee blockbuster success.
German Techni points out that just because a book sells well doesn't necessarily mean it will translate into a successful film. Some people may purchase the book out of curiosity or dislike, but that doesn't guarantee viewership when it comes to the screen adaptation.
The success of a film adaptation depends on various factors such as production, casting, scripting, and marketing.
There is some sympathy for Prince Harry, as he appears to be dealing with personal struggles and unresolved issues. However, his behavior has been criticized, with experts comparing him to an actor pretending to be happy in the US. While there may be a sense of Sussex fatigue among the public, there is still considerable interest in Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Despite the love or hate sentiment towards them, the public is intrigued by the rare glimpse into palace dramas that the couple provides.
Concerns arise regarding the Sussexes' long-term Hollywood plan or strategy, as they seem to have burned too brightly and quickly without establishing longevity in the industry. The collapse of their $20 million Spotify deal has contributed to them being labeled a Hollywood flop by The Wall Street Journal and Rolling Stone magazine.
Criticisms have been directed at the couple, with one source referring to them as "effing drifters." Meghan's desired interview with Taylor Swift reportedly did not materialize, further adding to the perception of their struggle in the industry.
In summary, the challenges faced by Prince Harry in adapting his book for the screen, along with the perception of the Sussexes as a Hollywood flop, have raised questions about their long-term strategy and success in Tinseltown. Despite the criticisms, public interest in their lives and the behind-the-scenes drama from the palace remains high.
