Prince Andrew rides at dawn.
The Duke of York, 64, was photographed taking his horse out for a morning stroll as the bombshell drama “Scoop” hit Netflix on Friday.
The film is a fictionalized portrayal of BBC reporter Emily Maitlis (played by Gillian Anderson), who interviewed Andrew for a “Newsnight” segment in 2019 about his friendship with dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew was seen out and about at Windsor Castle riding his horse during his outing. He wore a helmet, gloves, a sweater and an olive jacket to brave the cold weather.
Rufus Sewell plays Andrew in “Scoop,” while Keeley Hawes was cast as the royal’s private secretary Amanda Thirsk and Billie Piper as TV producer Sam McAlister.
The movie also reveals how Maitlis booked the disastrous interview, which showed Andrew sweating as he denied that he had sexual relations with Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts when she was a teenager in the early 2000s.
In 2022, Andrew was stripped of his royal and military titles by his late mother, Queen Elizabeth, after Roberts brought forward a lawsuit against him and claimed he sexually abused her.
Andrew has denied the claims and the case was later settled out of court for an undisclosed sum.
Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams noted that the movie will be shocking for Buckingham Palace.
“The film conveys the extraordinary sense of entitlement that Andrew had. He is told by his aide Amanda Thirsk to ‘just be himself’ and he is,” Fitzwilliams told the Daily Mail. “That’s the most damning thing.”
He continued: “It is very embarrassing for the palace and simply another indication that Andrew is completely unfit for the royal family he was born into.”
“Andrew’s is already ghastly and couldn’t be worse so this will confirm people’s view of him,” he said, adding that the man viewers see in the drama “doesn’t seem to be in touch with reality.”
Sewell recently discussed getting into the character for the part, confessing that the role of Andrew was stressing him out.
“One of the reasons why I was so hesitant to take it was because I didn’t want to be seen as jumping on some bandwagon,” the “Holiday” actor said on “Good Morning Britain” on March 27.
“I just wanted to do a truthful representation of him and that includes good and bad. It’s to show the light and dark, and we all have both. He is a human like everyone else.”
