Meghan Markle signs to same Hollywood agency as The Rock and Serena Williams

Meghan Markle has joined the likes of Serena Williams and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and signed with Hollywood power agency WME, according to reports.

The Duchess of Sussex, 41, will now be represented by William Morris Endeavor, known as WME, which boasts a huge roaster of A-list talent, according to a new report from Variety. She will reportedly be working with WME CEO Ari Emanuel, agent Brad Slater, and agent Jill Smoller.

WME will manage Meghan's content label Archewell, which she shares with husband Prince Harry, 38, and the agency will also work with her on brand partnerships as well as film and TV projects.

OK! has contacted representatives for Meghan Markle.

Meghan's new career move won't involve acting however, with Variety reporting that "acting will not be an area of focus" for the Duchess. Prior to marrying Harry, Meghan starred in hit US series Suits as Rachel Zane as well as Hallmark films.

She filmed her final scenes for Suits in 2017, not long after beginning a relationship with Harry.

The mum-of-two, who shares Archie, three, and one year old Lilibet with Harry, previously told how she wasn't thinking of going back to her acting career anytime in the future, saying she's "done".

In her Variety cover shoot in 2022, she said: "I'm done. I guess never say never, but my intention is to absolutely not."

Speaking about her hopes for the future, she added: "So much of how my husband and I see things is through our love story. I think that's what people around the world connected to, especially with our wedding. People love love. I'm not excluded in that sentiment.

"For scripted, we want to think about how we can evolve from that same space and do something fun. It doesn't always have to be so serious. Like a good rom-com. Don't we miss them? I miss them so much."

Meghan and Harry stepped away from Royal duties in 2020 after tying the knot in 2018, with the pair then relocating to California.

Since forming their content creation company Archewell, they have produced two documentaries, including hit Neflix series Harry & Meghan.

Harry released his best-selling memoir Spare in January, while Meghan launched her first podcast, Archetypes, with Spotify last year.
