Netflix have reportedly given the feuding Spice Girls a ‘stark ultimatum’ over a much publicised TV biopic, which could net all five members £1million each.
According to The Sun the streaming service has stepped in after Geri Horner decided to back out of her involvement in the project.
The publication reports that Netflix has told the band to make up otherwise, much like controversial drama The Crown, will make the show without any input from the people featured in it.
A source said: ‘Executives are keen to have all the group on board providing as much input as possible – after all they are pop royalty.
‘But Netflix are the organisation who defied the wishes of real royalty and went ahead and made The Crown, so they aren’t afraid to go it alone when they have to.
‘The project is in its very early stages so there’s plenty of time to get all five Spice Girls involved.

MailOnline have contacted reps for all five of the Spice Girls and Netflix.
Viewers and public figures alike have openly criticised The Crown for rewriting history, with Dame Judi, 89, accusing it of ‘crude sensationalism’, and former Prime Minister John Major, 81, calling the show ‘nonsense’.
Fans also have hit out at the final series for scenes depicting Princess Diana’s ghost talking to King Charles and the late Queen Elizabeth.
