For the Duchess of Sussex wants to play a superhero in a blockbuster movie – and has told her agents to 'actively search' for a suitable role.

Meghan has made no secret of her wish to return to acting as she seeks financial independence and has already reportedly signed a charity voice-over deal with Disney. The studio also owns Marvel and the rights to all its comic-book characters, which could pave the way for Meghan's role in an action spectacular.
