Nacho Figueras is opening up about working with his friend Prince Harry on their upcoming polo documentary series.
Speaking to PEOPLE at the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic on Saturday, Oct. 5, the professional polo player, 47, said it was an “honor” working with Harry, 40, on Netflix’s docuseries POLO, which goes behind the scenes of the sport.

“Look, to me, it’s an honor to do anything with him. He’s a dear friend,” Figueras tells PEOPLE. “This is more his project than it is mine. It’s an honor to know that I was able to help,” he adds of the series, which premieres in December.

“And the show is not about me. It’s not about him … So we’ve been working very hard on it and we’re very excited about the outcome.”

Netflix announced the Duke of Sussex’s new polo documentary series, which he is producing under his company Archewell Productions, on Sept. 9.

The streamer shared in a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter) that POLO “follows elite global players and offers an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the fast-paced world of the sport.”

On Oct. 5, Figueras also shared his best memory of filming the documentary, telling PEOPLE, “Look, everything about it. I would love for it to be a kind of, like a surprise. But what I can tell you is that me as a polo player, I think this is something that I’ve been waiting for my entire life,” he teases of the show.

The polo star says the docuseries aims to “introduce millions of people to what the sport is all about.”

“You know, the behind-the-scenes, kind of like what Drive to Survive did for Formula 1,” Figueras explains. “I’m really looking forward to seeing what happens … Hopefully, this will be the beginning of a, hopefully, longer series that will expose our sport to millions of people.”
