To butcher the lyrics to a song: Harry, don’t go away mad. Just go away.
But sadly, he and his wife are not going away. They are trying to get as much publicity to their desire for privacy as they can. They will not stop until everyone knows how much they don’t want us paying attention to them. And their latest strategy is to make a movie about his life:
Prince Harry ‘can count on a record deal’ for ‘Spare’ film rights: report https://t.co/MLV7rqZw1T pic.twitter.com/M4qXrU2TMf

From the article:
Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle are reportedly ‘hopeful’ they can sell the film rights to the Duke of Sussex’s popular memoir ‘Spare.’
Markle, 41, and Harry, 38, ‘are in a win-win position,’ a ‘senior source’ told the Daily Express.
‘He will command a top-dollar fee for the rights, while involving [their foundation] Archewell would mean a more lucrative ‘double dip,’ ‘ the insider is quoted as saying.
Netflix is considered a top contender for the rights, as Harry and Markle, a former actress, in 2020 signed a multi-year deal with the media giant that’s estimated to be worth $100 million.
Can anyone explain to us why people keep throwing this much money at them? Like as an investment, how could this possibly be worth it?
He wouldn't dare inherit the wealth and power of the crown. Instead, he'll write a book about how much he hates the crown which will then get turned into a movie. A truly self made man if I've ever seen one. https://t.co/SaA6SDVrPE

And 'My wife destroyed everything' should be the title ✌️

Idris Elba is an excellent actor. He should be considered for the part. pic.twitter.com/goI3G6e2zE

These memes got jumpstarted when Netflix cast a black woman as Cleopatra in a dramatized documentary. There is even a lawsuit about it:

Naturally we don’t support the lawsuit on free speech reasons. Still, the real Cleopatra was basically an ethnically Greek woman, part of the Ptolemaic Dynasty (a line of foreign rulers installed in Egypt in the wake of Alexander the Great’s conquest). We are honestly shocked no one has ever taken the point of view that the Ptolemaic line were foreign colonizers or something like that.

Finally, ‘KellyMac’ asks the important question:
Will we get to see him freeze his todger?

We regret to inform you, dear reader, that she is talking about a real thing in his memoir:
