The series will provide behind-the-scenes stories of athletes and organizers as they prepare for the event, which has been delayed until next spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Netflix said.
Orlando von Einsiedel will direct the multi-episode series and Joanna Natasegara will be its producer, Netflix said. The duo produced the Oscar-winning short documentary “The White Helmets” about a rescue group in Syria.
The Invictus Games is a multi-sport event created in 2017 by Prince Harry – who served as a soldier in Afghanistan – for military personnel wounded in action.
