Meghan Markle’s career possibilities seem endless right now—“The Tig” relaunch! A memoir of her own! Influencer deals!—but will she return to her acting roots? Lest we forget, before meeting Prince Harry, before marrying into the royal family, before the Oprah Winfrey interview, before “Archetypes,” Meghan was an actress on the cusp of being a household name, and now, The Daily Express reports, she is being tapped for an iconic role that actually has ties to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.
If Meghan does opt to return to acting, it would need to be for a role that was next level, sensational, and headline worthy. This would certainly fit the bill—reports are surfacing that Meghan is being considered for the lead role in the sequel to 1992’s The Bodyguard, which starred Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner. Interestingly enough, before her death in 1997, Diana was being considered for this exact role, but after she died the project was shelved, until now.
