Prince Harry hopes to emulate Ron Howard in attempt to conquer Hollywood – Daily Express

Harry, 37, lives a couple of hours drive away from Hollywood with his wife Meghan Markle, 40. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex split with the Royal Family last year and moved to North America. The couple now live in the Montecito area with their two young children, Archie Harrison, two, and Lilibet Diana, five months. The legendary film director Ron Howard, 67, was also raised in Hollywood and went on to be one of the most successful filmmakers of his generation.

Ron found fame as Richie in the seventies sitcom Happy Days opposite Henry Winkler, who played the Fonz.

He went on to have huge directing successes, winning Oscars for his films, A Beautiful Mind and Frost/Nixon.

Now, the director and his brother Clint Howard, an actor, have published a joint memoir of their upbringing in Tinseltown.

The Boys: A Memoir of Hollywood and Family, which hit the shelves in October, charts the brothers early adventures together, as well as how to survive the ruthless world of Hollywood.

Ron will chat about his new book on The Graham Norton Show on BBC One this evening.

Actor Paul Rudd will also be welcomed to Grahams sofa to chat about his role in Ghostbusters: Afterlife.

The actress Halle Berry will speak about her new drama, Bruised, while Stephen Fry will also plug his new book Fry's Ties.

Jazz singer Gregory Porter will also perform his song Revival.

The paper quoted a source, who said: Harry has been doing courses, most recently a five-day creative producing lab.

There is talk of Ron Howard being someone to emulate.

It would prove to his family and the world hes not going to sit back and sponge off his name.

Harry wants to work and is willing to do that from the bottom up.

He also doesnt want to be in Meghans shadow either.

He is in a very creative headspace and is determined to work as hard as he can.

The Graham Norton Show airs on BBC One tonight from 10.35pm-11:25pm.
