The documentary begins filming next month and is set to hit screens next autumn.<\/p>\n

It comes after wayward son Prince Harry and Meghan Markle signed a 100-million deal with the streaming giants and slammed the royals in their six-part documentary.<\/p>\n

While Netflix has also now come in as a partner with Meghan\u2019s As Ever food brand.<\/p>\n

And it also came under fire for bending the truth with controversial storylines on The Crown.<\/p>\n

Luther star Idris, 52,<\/a> was the beneficiary of a grant from the Trust when he was a struggling actor.<\/p>\n

The series will celebrate 50 years of the Trust and tell the story of some of the one young people the charity has helped around the world.<\/p>\n

One of Charles\u2019s former most senior aides, Eva Omaghomi<\/a>, is credited as an executive producer.<\/p>\n

At its heart, this is a documentary about the power of believing in young people<\/p>\n

Idris Elba, Actor and Founder of the Elba Hope Foundation, said: \u201cThe King\u2019s Trust gave me an opportunity that changed my life. At a time when I didn\u2019t have the resources to pursue my ambitions, they offered real, practical support – including financial help \u2014 that helped me take those first steps to advance my career.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, through the Elba Hope Foundation, I\u2019m focused on creating those same opportunities for young people who are full of potential but lacking access. Around the world, millions are still waiting for that one door to open. This documentary is about shining a light on what\u2019s possible when it does \u2014 and why the work of The King\u2019s Trust remains so important.\u201d<\/p>\n

King Charles waves to royal fans as he leaves Buckingham Palace with Queen Camilla for Trooping the Colour<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s about an idea, driven by a young Prince who was determined to make a positive difference, that when young people are supported to succeed, we all succeed.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlmost 50 years on, the momentum behind this idea has seen more than 1.3 million young people supported in over 20 countries around the world, including more than a million in the UK alone, through the work of The King\u2019s Trust.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cNobody understands the impact of this work better than those who have experienced the support we offer first hand.<\/p>\n

\n

The King is pleased for The Trust to have this wonderful opportunity to showcase their work to a global audience<\/p>\n

Palace aide<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cAs a long-term supporter and former beneficiary of The Trust himself, Idris will undoubtedly bring a unique perspective to this groundbreaking documentary as he peels back the layers of our story and shows how our life-changing work is as relevant today as it has ever been.\u201d<\/p>\n

Idris and the King previously appeared together in a documentary on knife crime.<\/p>\n

The King will not interviewed in the Netflix show but filmed in conversation, it is understood.<\/p>\n

A palace aide said: \u201cThe King is pleased for The Trust to have this wonderful opportunity to showcase their work to a global audience, sharing the compelling stories of some of the more than 1million young people it has helped in Britain and internationally over the past 50 years\u201d.<\/p>\n
