Prince Harry Pitched Meghan Markle's Voice Acting to Bob Iger

“A Lot Like Love” (2005) 

Markle literally played a “hot girl” in this romantic comedy starring Ashton Kutcher. Markle was seated next to Kutcher’s character on a plane. And that was pretty much it.  

“CSI: NY” (2006) 

Before Meghan landed a series regular role, she had a small bit in this crime procedural, playing a maid who cleaned up for businessmen while dressed in lingerie.  Spoiler alert: She didn’t commit the murder.

“Remember Me” (2010) 

One of Markle’s first roles was a small part in this romantic drama starring Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin. Luckily, Markle’s career took a better turn than the end of this film.  

Markle met her first husband, Trevor Engelson, when he was a producer on “Remember Me.” The two divorced in 2013 after two years of marriage.

“Horrible Bosses” (2011) 

Markle had a teeny, tiny bit in this raunchy comedy, but managed to steal a scene with Jason Sudeikis, who told her she was far too cute to be a FedEx girl. “You’ve got to be an actress or a model or something,” he said. Try royalty, Sudeikis.

“Castle” (2012)  

Markle actually played a princess once. Well, kinda. The actress starred in an episode of this ABC drama as Sleeping Beauty, or a woman who is dressed up like her before she is almost murdered. Markle turned out to be the one who hatched the entire scheme and was killing off her friends.

“Dater’s Handbook” (2016) 

Yes, Markle has even done a Hallmark channel movie. She played Cass, a successful businesswoman who had some trouble finding love. But don’t worry, she did after using a dating manual, and then throwing it out entirely.  Soon after wrapping this made-for-TV movie, Markle truly found love with Harry.
