POLICY WIRE — London, UK — Meghan Markle is currently in discussions for a role in the upcoming Netflix series “The Gentlemen,” according to BBC sources. This would mark her first substantial acting role since her marriage to Prince Harry.

Details regarding the specific character or the extent of her involvement remain undisclosed. The series, a spin-off from Guy Ritchie’s 2019 film of the same name, is set to be released on the streaming platform later this year.

Markle, who previously starred in the legal drama “Suits,” has largely stepped back from her acting career following her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018. The couple has since relocated to California and has been focusing on various charitable endeavors and personal projects.

Netflix has yet to confirm the casting or provide additional information about the series. Further updates are expected as production details emerge.
