Meghan Markle desperately looking for role in Hollywood superhero film, wants to be part of an ensemble cast
With her days as a legal associate in 'Suits' far behind her, Meghan Markle is reportedly eyeing the superhero deals in Hollywood. Yes, you got that right. The Duchess of Sussex wants to play the role of a superhero in a blockbuster film and has told her agents to search for a suitable role.
Markle has been quite vocal about her wish to return to showbiz as she seeks financial independence. Reportedly, she has signed a charity voiceover deal with Disney. The mammoth studio also owns Marvel and the rights to comic-book characters, which could lead the way for Markle.
Meghan's agent, Nick Collins, has been flooded with offers. According to a source, "He has said she wants her return to acting to be part of an ensemble cast in something like a superhero film. He's actively seeking such a movie for her. He's saying she is available and open to the best offers. Meghan is planning a series of meetings in Hollywood. She has already done the voiceover for Disney and now word is out that she's looking for a superhero film, as a voiceover or even on screen."
The source also added that Meghan 'knows she can't carry a film as an actress'. "People won't be able to get past the fact she's Meghan Markle. But she's determined to act again and she thinks a big, ensemble film is the way to go… something that pays big but which doesn't put her front and centre."
The source continued, "Pretty much every A-list actress, including Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Alba, Margot Robbie, Jennifer Lawrence, and Halle Berry have starred in superhero movies. There used to be a certain stigma attached to Marvel films but now they are the biggest market in the world. That's what Meghan wants."
So will we see Meghan in a superhero film? Only time will tell! as Prince Harry had once reportedly said, "What Meghan wants, Meghan gets."
