Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly engaged in early discussions regarding a potential acting role in the third season of Netflix crime series The Gentlemen, directed by Guy Ritchie. Industry reports indicate these preliminary talks focus on a British project, though Netflix has not yet officially renewed the series for a third season. The upcoming second season is scheduled for a September 2026 premiere. Representatives for both Netflix and Markle have declined to comment on the unconfirmed casting discussions, and no specific character has been contracted. This potential return to television follows previous announcements regarding the couple plans to spend an extended period in the United Kingdom after residing in California since 2020. Markle most notable previous acting role was as Rachel Zane in the legal drama Suits, which she left prior to her marriage in 2018. Since relocating, she and Prince Harry managed Archewell Productions projects successfully.
