Erica, an African-American woman in her 30s, is described as strong-headed, career-oriented, and "smarter than everyone," with an eventful personal life. The character seems to align with Meghan's previous role as paralegal Rachel Zane in the fictional law firm Specter Litt.
The spin-off was announced following the unexpected success of Suits on Netflix. Meghan Markle originally portrayed Rachel Zane until her departure after Season 7, coinciding with the early stages of her relationship with Prince Harry. Since then, Meghan has shifted her focus to philanthropy and entrepreneurship.
The potential return of Meghan Markle to the Suits universe has heightened anticipation among fans, eager to see her reprise the role that contributed to the show's popularity. Meghan was noticeably absent from a recent mini-reunion of the Suits cast at the Golden Globe Awards earlier this month.
