Meghan Markle’s role in Horrible Bosses
In the 2011 movie, Meghan Markle plays a FedEx delivery girl named Jamie, and she has a brief scene with Jason Sudeikis.
It’s part of the long list of movies and TV shows royal fans forget she had starring roles in.
During the scene, Jason’s character Kurt Buckman, complimented her looks and suggested she was too attractive to work at FedEx. He even implies if she’s on a hidden camera show or prank series, because he can’t believe it.
This was before the royal went on to land her role as Rachel Zane in the legal drama set in Toronto.
Jason Sudeikis said it was “great” working with Meghan Markle and called her “very sweet”.

Jason Sudeikis’ ‘prediction’ on Meghan Markle’s future
When asked ahead of her royal wedding, if he saw one of his co-stars marrying a prince, he said he “saw it coming”.
He joked: “I saw it coming a mile away. I gotta be honest with you.
“She was regal in that moment, and it seemed like she’s only gotten better at it.”
But when quizzed if he’d watch the nuptials at the time, he opted out as the time difference between America and Britain meant he’d have to get up early.
However, the star added his mum probably would.
Other movie roles the Duchess has starred in
The royal’s first acting gig was in an episode of General Hospital, which her father helped set up as he worked as the show’s lighting director.
But she appeared in other movies and TV shows throughout her career.
These included two Hallmark movies, Dater’s Handbook When Sparks Fly, as well as Random Encounters, Dysfunctional Friends and Anti-social. She also had a small part in the flicks A Lot Like Love and Remember Me, including opposite Russell Brand in Get Him to the Greek.
