Prince Harry and Oprah Winfrey will release a new project for Apple TV+ in 2020 that the two have been working on for quite some time. The partnership, which was announced in April of this year, is a series that revolves around the importance of mental health.

According to Hello, Winfrey and the Duke of Sussex "are partners, co-creators and executive producers" of the new series. A source also revealed to the publication that the pair share a "personal friendship" and have a shared interest in bringing awareness to the topic. Now, new details have begun to emerge as the 2020 premiere date nears.

Aside from Oprah and Harry, the project also has an impressive creative team working on it as well. Emmy-nominee Dawn Porter and Oscar-winner Asif Kapadia are serving as directors and executive producer, while Peabody-winner Kahane Cooperman is stepping in as showrunner and executive producer.

This new alliance with the "Super Soul Sunday" host builds on Harry's past work in the field of mental health issues. Previously, he has worked alongside Kate Middleton and Prince William on their Heads Together campaign that focused on encouraging people to open up about the topic in order to reduce the associated stigma.

As for how Prince Harry himself views the new initiative when speaking with journalist Bryony Gordon for the Telegraph, he said, "If the viewers can relate to the pain and perhaps the experience, then it could save lives, as we will focus on prevention and positive outcomes."
