This news follows confirmation that Meghan will not appear in the newly planned Suits spin-off show. Aaron Korsh, creator of the hit legal drama, penned the script for a new series centered around the employees of a Hollywood law firm. One character, Erica, seemed tailor-made for Meghan, but it appears the Duchess isn't ready to return to acting just yet. Sources suggest Meghan rejected the idea of appearing on-screen but offered to work behind the scenes with her production company, Archewell. However, NBC turned down the proposition.
While Meghan has made her stance on acting clear, Archewell attempted to pivot as a production company, but NBC wasn't on board. A source revealed to the Daily Mail that Archewell's involvement in the reboot seems unlikely. The Mirror reached out to Meghan's spokesperson for comment.
Aaron's new show is currently in development at Universal, with no confirmation yet on whether the original Suits cast will make an appearance. Meghan's character, Rachel Zane, and Mike Ross, played by Patrick J. Adams, have moved to Seattle. Rumors of Patrick's return began swirling after he expressed interest in a Suits spin-off at the Golden Globes.
Meghan has spoken warmly about her time on Suits, referring to the cast as her family. During the ATX TV Festival in 2017, she mentioned, "I think we were family right out of the gate," highlighting the unique dynamics of both living and working together.
