Her fans have just received some highly anticipated news!
Since marrying Prince Harry in 2018, Meghan Markle has not pursued her acting career, instead focusing on her duties as the Duchess of Sussex.
Markle has notably put aside her breakout role as Rachel Zane on the series Suits, a project she had said she was proud of, which features Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams.
“This is a new chapter, isn’t it? I’ve checked that box, I’m very proud of the work I did there, and it’s now time to work with (Harry) as a team,” Meghan Markle said after leaving Suits in 2017.
Meanwhile, her fans have just received some highly anticipated news!
She’s Back
According to information revealed by Variety and relayed by several outlets, Meghan Markle is making a major return to screen after a long hiatus: she will appear in a cameo (a very brief role) in the upcoming comedy Close Personal Friends, joining a prestigious cast that includes Lily Collins, Brie Larson, Jack Quaid, and Henry Golding.
The film, directed by Jason Orley and written by Isaac Aptaker, centers on an “ordinary” couple who cross paths with a famous couple during a stay in Santa Barbara, and discover that a close friendship with celebrity can become a slippery slope.
For Meghan Markle, the cameo marks a symbolic revival of her acting career after she paused it upon joining the royal family and later shifted directions professionally. According to sources, she plays a version of herself in a light, but noticeable role that is sure to draw media and fan attention.
The announcement comes as Close Personal Friends begins filming in Los Angeles (with some production taking place in London), and the project’s studio, Amazon MGM Studios, appears to be leaning into a contemporary tone that explores celebrity, privacy, and the blurred lines between public life and private life.
Her Other Projects
Despite her absence from major cinema, Meghan Markle has launched several television projects in recent years. She has notably hosted and produced a lifestyle series With Love, Meghan, set to stream on Netflix starting in 2025, in which she shares recipes, gardening tips, hospitality moments, and conversations with celebrity guests.
Additionally, through her company Archewell Productions, she and her husband have announced several other projects in development: one or more unscripted shows, a film, and upcoming book adaptations.
These initiatives show that she is steering more toward production and television content; they mark a new chapter in her journey after Suits and her public commitments.
