Ex-Royal Meghan Markle Turns Down ‘Golden Opportunity’ In Hollywood; Experts Puzzled
Ex-Royal Meghan Markle turned down a fetching opportunity that could boost her net worth by millions! As per sources, she rejected a new “Suits” spin-off that could have relaunched her dwindling Hollywood career. Experts are now left confused as to her actions, especially as she and Prince Harry have no new sources of income.
Missed a Massive Chance to Make Millions More Dollars
The insider tip revealed that NBC is in the works of jet-setting a new “Suits” spin-off and wanted Meghan Markle to reprise her role. She played Rachel Zane in 108 episodes of the television show that ran for 7 seasons. Experts are calling this a golden opportunity that she refused, and massive chances like these are rare to come by.
Hollywood is now dumbfounded by her actions, which seem to have no logic behind them. Particularly as there are numerous reports of the former Royal couple scrambling for deals in the film industry. Had she accepted this spin-off offer of the hugely successful TV series, it would have been the perfect return to acting.
Suits Topped Netflix Charts for Weeks
Suits resurfaced in the limelight with Netflix’s recent release and acquired tens of millions of new fans and 57.7 billion viewing minutes globally. Meghan would have been in a commanding position had she accepted the new spin-off.
However, when NBC pitched the new franchise, Meghan wanted to be an executive producer and involved in Prince Harry’s production company Archewell. NBC said no and she dropped out, but they hope she may return as a guest star someday.
Meghan Markle Will Regret in the Future
By letting this amazing project slip through her fingers, Meghan is making the costliest mistake of her film career. Media finance analysts and LA agents say that “she may bitterly regret in years to come.” The 42-year-old was earning around $50,000 per episode when the original legal drama was filmed.
Going by that remuneration, this planned big-budget spin-off could have allowed her to make a fortune. Industry talk suggests that Meghan Markle could command up to $500,000 per episode! She had to quit the old series as she got engaged to Prince Harry; however, this time, there is no real reason to say no — other than ego, that is.
Failing to Be Real Players in Hollywood
Pride is the start of downfall, experts say, “I can understand them wanting to move on in their effort to become real players in Hollywood. But pride often comes before a fall.” These statements hold weight because the couple has nothing to show for currently.
They lost their Spotify podcast contract last year, and Netflix is not renewing the 5-year contract with Archewell (their production company) that costs $100 million. All Meghan Markle has in hand now is a podcast deal with Lemonade Media (USA) and their newly launched controversial website Sussex.com.
