Meghan Markle's Potential Return to Acting
Media Reports on Netflix Negotiations
LONDON, Aug 21 (Reuters) - Meghan, the wife of Britain's Prince Harry, may be returning to acting with a role in the Netflix series "The Gentlemen," according to media reports on Friday.
The Hollywood Reporter said the duchess was in advanced talks to appear in a third season of the series created by Guy Ritchie. Another Hollywood publication, Deadline, said the discussions were "hypothetical," given that the show has not yet been renewed for a third season. The second season is scheduled to be released next month.
Uncertainty Around the Role and Series Renewal
Deadline also said no role has been identified for Meghan, who starred in the U.S. cable TV drama "Suits" from 2011 to 2018. Netflix and a representative for Meghan and Harry declined to comment to Reuters.
