Meghan Markle is believed to be in talks for the third season of Guy Ritchie's Netflix series The Gentlemen. Reports hint the Duchess of Sussex is being considered for the crime comedy, even though Netflix has not yet officially renewed the series beyond its upcoming season. The Gentlemen, starring Theo James and Kaya Scodelario, is a spinoff of Guy Ritchie’s 2019 film with the same name. It has since emerged as one of Netflix’s popular British original series.
