Meghan Markle is said to be on the hunt for acting jobs following her move to separate her life from the Royal Family with her husband Prince Harry. Back in January, the couple announced they would be stepping down from their duties as senior royals and working to become financially independent as they carve out a new path for themselves away from the institution. However, though she reportedly had her sights set on a part in a Disney film, the studio apparently snubbed her somewhat.
But that hasn’t stopped bookies from cutting odds on the Duchess of Sussex making her next film appearance for Disney.
Ladbrokes have trimmed the odds to 4/1 on Meghan making her big screen comeback in a Disney movie.
“Meghan needs Disney more than Disney needs Meghan but the odds suggest she might just get her wish when it comes to her next career move,” the bookies’ Alex Apati said.
Meghan was previously priced at just 6/1 to snag a part for Disney just last week.
Last year, Prince Harry was caught on video seemingly pitching Meghan’s talents to Disney boss Bob Iger and director Jon Favreau.
The video emerged after the royal couple attended the London premiere of The Lion King.
In the clip, Prince Harry could be heard saying: “Next time you need any voiceover work we can make ourselves available.”
“That’s really why we’re here,” Meghan joked. “It’s to pitch!”
With Meghan and Prince Harry leaving royal life behind, they’re set to split their time between Canada and the UK.
They will also be paying back the £2.4 million taxpayer funds which paid for the refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage.
Before she met Prince Harry, Meghan had a number of small film roles, including a brief appearance in Horrible Bosses and one in A Lot Like Love opposite Ashton Kutcher.
She was best known for playing Rachel Zane in US legal drama Suits.
