The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, is reportedly in discussions for a potential acting role in the upcoming Netflix series "The Gentlemen." The BBC understands that these conversations are in their initial stages.

This would mark Meghan's first significant acting role since her marriage to Prince Harry. The series, created by Guy Ritchie, is a comedy that follows a duke who becomes involved in drug trafficking. Actors such as Theo James, Hugh Bonneville, and Vinnie Jones have featured in previous installments of the show.

Much of the earlier seasons of "The Gentlemen" were filmed in the Cotswolds, an area where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are rumored to be establishing a home upon their return to the UK later this month. The specific details of any role offered to the Duchess of Sussex have not yet been disclosed.
