The Disneynature documentary is called "Elephant" and will be released on April 3rd to commemorate Earth Month. The trailer states: ‘"Elephant," narrated by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, follows one family’s extraordinary 1000 mile journey across Africa on an adventure that will change their lives.’ It also coincides with the couple's exit, as they will officially end their royal duties on the last day of March, reports The Hill.

The subject matter of this documentary is close to Harry and Meghan's hearts as much of their charitable work goes towards providing support for these endangered species. Harry is president of African Parks and also patron of the Rhino Conservation Botswana.

Elephants Without Borders will benefit greatly from Meghan's collaboration with them, as Meghan signed the voiceover deal in return for a donation to them from Disney, reports the Metro. It should also boost awareness of the charitable organization as they worked in partnership with Disney.
Disneynature's documentaries are often narrated by celebrities. Morgan Freeman voiced "March of the Penguins" and Meryl Streep was the voice behind "Wings of Life."
