It has been nine years since she was seen as Rachel Zane in The Suits, but Meghan Markle may soon be returning to acting full-time.
The actor may be teaming up with Guy Ritchie for her return to acting, according to a new Deadline report.
The news broke days after Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, announced they would be returning to the UK for an extended period. But a full-time return to acting was not confirmed. But the timing of the potential casting is important. The royal couple had been living in California for the past six years Meghan, born in the US, began her acting career in the 2000s, doing minor roles in TV shows like CSI: NY and films such as Horrible Bosses. She began as a supporting member of the cast before being elevated to lead in the subsequent seasons. She recently did a guest appearance on MasterChef Australia.
The second season of The Gentlemen premieres on Netflix on September 3. Her big break came with The Suits in 2011, in which she played paralegal-turned-lawyer, Rachel Zane. Meghan quit the show after she left acting following her marriage to Harry in 2018. In 2020, the couple left the UK to move to California. Since the duo’s relocation to the US in 2020, they have done the Netflix docu-series Harry & Meghan and With Love, Meghan under their deal there, with Markle also hosting the Archetypes podcast. In 2025, she returned to acting with a cameo in the Amazon MGM Studios movie Close Personal Friends.
The former Suits star has had preliminary discussions about joining Guy Ritchie’s Netflix series The Gentlemen for Season 3, according to the report. The Gentlemen is a spinoff of Guy Ritchie’s 2019 film. In season 2 of the show, it’s been one year since Eddie (James) and Susie (Kaya Scodelario) joined forces to work together in Bobby’s (Ray Winstone) criminal empire overseas.
Because the Gentlemen, starring Theo James, has not been renewed for a third season yet, however, the report adds that the talks are in very early stages and they are also hypothetical at this point. No role has been identified for Meghan’s return. The film follows aristocratic Eddie (Theo James), who inherits the family estate and discovers that it’s home to an enormous weed empire.
The actor has been “offered a role in an upcoming project based in the UK, according to the outlet’s sources.
