Meghan Markle Reportedly Eyeing Role in Guy Ritchie’s “The Gentlemen”
Meghan Markle is reportedly considering a role in Guy Ritchie's upcoming project "The Gentlemen," which would signify her return to acting after an eight-year break.
New York, NY, August 21, 2026 —
Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly in discussions to take on a role in Guy Ritchie’s upcoming project, titled “The Gentlemen.” This potential move would mark her return to acting after an absence of approximately eight years.
Details regarding the specific role or the extent of her involvement remain undisclosed. The project, “The Gentlemen,” is understood to be a series spin-off from Ritchie’s 2019 film of the same name. The original film starred Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, and Colin Farrell, and focused on an American expatriate marijuana kingpin in London seeking to sell off his highly profitable empire.
Markle’s acting career prior to her marriage to Prince Harry included a prominent role as Rachel Zane in the legal drama series “Suits.” She appeared in the show for seven seasons, from 2011 to 2018, before departing upon her engagement to Prince Harry. Since stepping down as a working royal in 2020, Markle and Prince Harry have focused on various ventures, including their production company Archewell Productions, through which they have partnered with platforms like Netflix and Spotify.
The reported consideration for “The Gentlemen” comes at a time when Markle has been exploring new professional avenues. If confirmed, this would be her first acting engagement since leaving “Suits.” Further details about the project and Markle’s potential participation are expected to emerge as discussions progress.
