Janetti already regularly shares funny Instagram posts and memes from George’s point of view, casting the little boy as a sassy and snarky commentator on all things royal and celebrity.

Janetti’s Prince George regularly mocks his parents, his younger siblings, his uncle Harry and aunt Meghan, their son Archie, and other members of his family. 

But now the rest of the royal family will get to weigh in, too, with Orlando Bloom voicing Prince Harry and Condola Rashad voicing Meghan Markle.

Lucy Punch will play Kate Middleton, Tom Hollander both Prince Philip and Prince Charles, Frances De La Tour Queen Elizabeth, and Iwan Rheon Prince William.

Alan Cumming will voice George’s butler, Owen.

According to Deadline, each episode George ‘will find his path in life as a young prince in modern times — from the 775 rooms of Buckingham Palace to his family’s sea of corgis to primary school with commoners.’ 

‘We’re so excited to bring the world Gary’s created on Instagram over to HBO Max, where our viewers can discover what his Instagram fans already know — that George can be hilarious, shocking, and surprisingly sweet,’ Sarah Aubrey, head of original content, HBO Max, said in a statement. 

‘We can’t wait to see what Gary does with a bigger canvas to paint on than just a 1:1 square.’

Janetti added: ‘I’m thrilled to be working at HBO Max and bringing them yet another series about a family ruthlessly fighting for the throne.’

The series is sure to earn attention, just as several of Janetti’s memes made headlines in the past.

Last year, when Princess Eugenie got married, Janetti shared several cheeky takes on the day. Shortly after Eugenie’s nuptials, he uploaded a cute picture of George in his wedding outfit, turning around and looking over his shoulder.

Beside it was a picture of Beyoncé at the Met Gala, striking a similar pose.

‘Beyoncé taught me this move,’ Janetti captioned the snap, as Prince George.

Later, he posted another picture of Princess Eugenie herself, smiling in her white wedding dress and sparkly tiara. It split the screen with a photo of George, also at the wedding, in a snap that appears to have been taken mid-gasp.

‘Oh, s***, THAT’S Princess Eugenie!’ the pictures were captioned. ‘All this time I thought she was one of the maids!’

Later, next to a picture of her sister Princess Beatrice, he wrote: ‘Oh, s***, she’s not a maid either!’ 

Just before the big day, he posted an article written about the wedding, captioning it: ‘Princess WHOgenie is more like it.’

He’s also taken on Harry and Meghan’s wedding, betrayed a rivalry with Princess Charlotte, and had plenty to say about the recent royal drama.
