Amidst Prince Charles and Kate Middleton's temporary withdrawal from royal duties, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly set to embark on a Hollywood comeback with a "dream role" in a blockbuster spinoff of the popular legal drama Suits.
The Duchess, who has faced challenges in reentering Hollywood after a reported Spotify snub, is said to have been offered the opportunity to make her directorial debut on at least one episode of the new series, Suits: Los Angeles.
NBCUniversal has reportedly given the green light for the spinoff, and negotiations are in progress with Meghan's representation at the talent agency WME.
The new series, a brainchild of Meghan's friend and the creator of the original drama, Aaron Korsch, has already generated anticipation. Studio insiders reveal that Meghan, with her built-in global fan base, is in a commanding position for a significant role.
A source disclosed to Daily Express that an official announcement could be on the horizon, possibly as early as next month, showcasing the industry's eagerness to welcome Meghan back.
Suits, known for topping America's TV download charts for fifteen consecutive weeks, has sparked speculation about Meghan reprising her role as paralegal Rachel Zane. Patrick J. Adams, Meghan's former co-star, hinted at the possibility after the Golden Globes, stating, "Mike and Rachel in Seattle. They gotta come down to LA, they gotta fix some stuff."
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Meghan remained elusive about her return, acknowledging the show's greatness and her enjoyable seven seasons on it. The new spinoff is said to feature a female lead bearing an uncanny resemblance to Meghan's previous character, described as "tailor-made" and a "dream role" by studio insiders, further fueling excitement about Meghan's potential involvement.
