Meghan is known to be friends with journalist Stew, while Christian Bale became Stew's stepson through her marriage to his father, David Bale, from 2000 until David's death in 2003. The second connection between Meghan and Christian Bale lies in their joint representation by the agency William Morris Endeavor. While there isn't concrete evidence of a direct connection between the two, it's highly likely that Meghan, known for her thorough research, was aware of this agency's client list.
According to a source close to WME staff, Meghan approached the company to exert pressure on Christian Bale to secure her a role in the upcoming film 'Best of Enemies,' which reunites Bale and Bradley Cooper, a decade after their collaboration in 'American Hustle.' This film, based on the book 'Best of Enemies: The Last Great Spy Story of the Cold War' by Eric Dosenal and Gus Roso, is a Cold War thriller. Although there have been reports of Bradley Cooper potentially directing and starring in the film, Meghan's bid for a role alongside Christian Bale and Bradley Cooper was unsuccessful, as neither actor agreed to her request.
Currently, Jennifer Lawrence is the featured actress in the cast, and Meghan cannot replace her due to Jennifer's notable status in the industry. Christian Bale is renowned for his exceptional acting abilities, having been nominated for an Oscar and winning a Golden Globe. In contrast, Meghan Markle lacks equivalent talent and hasn't received prestigious awards. Nevertheless, she continued to pursue prominent roles in high-profile projects, which may explain her switch from Sunshine Sachs to William Morris. Her departure from Sunshine Sachs was related to unpaid invoices, but the focus here is on her determination to succeed in Hollywood and her aspirations in the industry.
However, it's worth noting that Meghan Markle's public image has faced challenges this year. She has reportedly hinted at strategic improvements to boost public perception of her. Entertainment expert Mark Borman pointed out that Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, needs to be more careful with her public image strategy. Experts suggest that she has burned bridges with some of her actions and needs guidance on how to portray herself in a more positive light. Building a better public image could involve talking about the positive work she does, especially on social media, where she has a significant following. However, it's essential for her to be mindful of public perception and avoid egotistical posts that might turn away her audience.
