King Charles is set to star in a new documentary about his lifelong battle to “bring nature and humanity into harmony”.
The film, to be released on Prime Video, will see Charles warn it has never been more important to “protect and prioritise” the planet.
With a working title Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision, the documentary will launch in over 240 countries and territories worldwide in early 2026.
It features the King’s own reflections on his lifelong commitment to promoting a sustainable world, as he views special archive footage from across the decades.
Upon the announcement of the film, the King said he hopes the film will inspire others to protect the planet as he said he had spent most of life encouraging people to “work with, rather than against, nature”.
“Nature is our sustainer – we are a part of Nature. Therefore, what we do to her, we do to ourselves,” Charles said.
“For much of my life I have sought to promote and encourage ways we can work with, rather than against Nature. In other words, to restore balance to our planet which is under such stress.”
The documentary will explore the origins, evolution and scientific foundations of the King’s “Harmony” philosophy, which he set out in his 2010 book Harmony: A New Way of Looking At Our World.
It will show how The King’s Foundation, which has its headquarters in Dumfries House in Ayrshire, Scotland, has embraced this approach through projects focusing on community regeneration, sustainable textiles and traditional skills.
Charles said: “This film will, I hope, demonstrate just some of the remarkable work being done around the world to put Harmony into practice, from the forests of Guyana to sustainable communities in India – and, closer to home, through the work of my King’s Foundation at Dumfries House and Highgrove.
“Never has it been more important for the world to make a concerted effort to protect and prioritise our planet, and to restore our relationship with it.”
The King added: “It is therefore my fondest hope that this film may encourage a new audience to learn about the philosophy of Harmony – and perhaps inspire the same sense of determination it has given me to help build a more sustainable future.”
A new photograph of the King was released to mark the official announcement.
It showed Charles, in a light suit and colourful pink patterned tie, resting his hands on his shepherd’s crook walking stick, while surrounded by summer greenery in the arboretum at Highgrove Gardens, Gloucestershire, during filming.
The documentary’s director Nicolas Brown said the story was one of “hope and resilience”.
“Remarkably few people around the world know the full depth of the King’s lifelong battle to bring nature and humanity into harmony,” Brown said.
“Even today, His Majesty’s work with The King’s Foundation is transforming the world in so many inspiring ways.
“This is a story of hope and resilience. People who watch this film will leave feeling uplifted and motivated.
“The King’s philosophy offers something for everyone. Mostly, he shows us the power of resilience – and how following your intuition can transform the world.”
Courtenay Valenti, head of film for Amazon MGM Studios, said: “We believe this collaboration, championed by Amazon MGM
Studios head of documentary features Brianna Oh, will not only showcase the King’s remarkable vision but also inspire viewers across the globe to consider their own relationship with the natural world.”
Kristina Murrin, chief executive of The King’s Foundation, said it was both “moving and inspiring” to see the King’s Harmony journey committed to film.
