Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly in discussions to return to acting. Sources indicate she may join the third season of the Netflix series The Gentlemen, which is directed by Guy Ritchie. While the show has not yet been officially renewed, the potential casting has generated significant attention within the entertainment industry.
This move coincides with the announcement that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are returning to the United Kingdom to reside in a private home outside London. The couple, who moved to Montecito, California, in 2020, are relocating with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, ahead of the new school term in September.
Meghan previously starred as Rachel Zane in the legal drama Suits before stepping away from acting in 2018 upon her engagement to Prince Harry. Since then, she has focused on various media projects through Archewell Productions, including documentary series and a cooking show titled With Love, Meghan. Her recent activities also include a cameo in the upcoming Amazon comedy Close Personal Friends.
Representatives for the Duchess, Archewell Productions, and Guy Ritchie have not confirmed a finalized deal. Industry analysts note that no specific role has been identified for the Duchess at this time. Should she join the production, it would mark a significant shift back to scripted performance after years of focusing on documentary-style projects and lifestyle brand development.
The couple remains under a multi-year deal with Netflix, which has produced content detailing their departure from royal life and various personal projects. As they prepare to settle into their new residence in Britain, public interest regarding their professional output remains high.
