The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan, is reportedly in preliminary discussions for a role in the upcoming Netflix series "The Gentlemen," according to the BBC.

This potential acting engagement would represent Meghan's first significant role since her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018, which led her to step away from her acting career. The series, created by Guy Ritchie, has previously filmed in the Cotswolds, an area where Prince Harry and Meghan are rumored to be establishing a home upon their return to the UK.

While details surrounding the discussions and the specific nature of any offered role remain undisclosed, "The Gentlemen" is known as a comedy series focusing on a duke involved in drug trafficking. Previous seasons have featured actors such as Theo James, Hugh Bonneville, and Vinnie Jones.

Meghan is widely recognized for her seven-season portrayal of Rachel Zane, a lawyer, in the American legal drama "Suits," with her final episode airing in 2018. Following her marriage, she described stepping away from acting not as a loss, but as the beginning of a new chapter.

Recently, Meghan made a brief return to acting with a cameo appearance as herself in the forthcoming comedy "Close Personal Friends," a project that also stars Lily Collins and Brie Larson. A return to acting could also provide a financial boost, as she aims to expand her lifestyle and cooking brand, "As Ever," which is based in the U.S.

The news of these discussions coincides with the announcement that Prince Harry and Meghan plan to relocate from the United States back to the United Kingdom later this month. Their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, are scheduled to begin attending a British school in September.

There are currently no indications that Prince Harry or Meghan intend to resume their former roles as working members of the Royal Family. Their decision to move back to the UK follows a recent visit to see King Charles III at his Gloucestershire residence, Highgrove.

Their return to Britain on a more permanent basis has also brought renewed attention to security arrangements. Following their departure from royal duties in 2020 and subsequent move to the U.S., their publicly funded security in the UK was reduced. The Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec), an independent body under the Home Office, will be responsible for reassessing security provisions, as prior arrangements were predicated on the couple not residing in the UK full-time.
