Dropping December 31, the series will feature interviews with several familiar and famous faces, from New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and South African rugby player Siya Kolisi, to the late United States Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
In a statement, the streaming giant summarized the seven-part series as âextraordinaryâ leaders reflecting on their lives, while highlighting the âfundamental values, daily disciplines and guiding principles that leaders employ to motivate others and create meaningful change.â
âLive to Leadâ is executive produced by Harry and Meghan in association with the Nelson Mandela Foundation, it said.
Geoff Blackwell, the seriesâ creator and director, said in the statement that he and co-executive producer Ruth Hobday wanted to âhonor Mandelaâs values by surfacing the stories of leaders who distinguish themselves through their moral courage, the conviction of their ideals and values, and their prioritization of others.â
A trailer for the series, released Monday, features both the subjects and the Sussexes, with Harry quoting Mandela as saying, ââwhat counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived,ââ and Meghan concluding âit is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.â
Other interviewees include climate change activist Greta Thunberg, social justice campaigner Gloria Steinem, and anti-apartheid activist and former justice of the Constitutional Court of South Africa Albie Sachs.
This project follows the release of the eagerly anticipated docuseries âHarry & Meghanâ on the streaming platform earlier this month.
