Meghan Markle is generating buzz for her latest film project after sharing a new poster for cookie queensthe documentary he executive produced with Prince Harry through Archewell Productions.
Reposting the official artwork on Instagram, Meghan shared the simple yet encouraging message, “Big dreams start small. #CookieQueens will only be in theaters on August 7,” to build up the hype ahead of the documentary’s theatrical release.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Alysa Nahmias, cookie queens follows four determined young Girl Scouts as they compete to become the top cookie sellers during the iconic Girl Scout cookie season.
While focusing on one of America’s best-known traditions, the documentary explores much deeper themes such as ambition, resilience, leadership, and the realities of growing up.
The film first premiered to good reviews at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, where Meghan described it as much more than a story about cookies.
Speaking before the screening, the duchess praised Nahmias’s creative vision and said the documentary offers “one of the most powerful and significant depictions” of an American tradition while modernizing the experience of childhood.
“It’s cute, and yes, these young women are fantastic and adorable,” Meghan told the audience. “But they are also beautiful, layered girls who are on the verge of becoming strong leaders and young women.”
The documentary celebrates the entrepreneurial spirit of its young stars while exploring the pressures, friendships and personal growth that accompany one of America’s largest youth fundraising traditions, an industry that generates hundreds of millions of dollars each year.
The film has already received praise following its festival debut, with critics applauding its candid portrait of childhood and coming-of-age experiences ahead of its nationwide theatrical release.
