Meghan Markle’s career has hit a roadblock as she finds herself in a heated feud with the CEO of WME, stemming from a missed opportunity to collaborate with Kim Kardashian on a new film project.
Kim Kardashian, who has been a prominent figure in Hollywood for over 15 years, rose to fame through the reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which aired from 2007 to 2021.
This catapulted her into the public eye, and she went on to build a successful business empire while also dabbling in acting.
Following her success on the show, Kardashian ventured into the world of movies and TV shows, and her breakthrough came with her role in American Horror Story.
Now, she is taking her acting career even more seriously with her latest project, “The Fifth Wheel,” in which she will star and produce.
The script for the film is written by renowned comedians Paula Pell and Janine Brito.
Deadline recently reported that five studios have already expressed interest in acquiring the project, highlighting Kardashian’s rising status in the industry.
Kardashian’s involvement in American Horror Story received widespread acclaim, propelling her into the spotlight and opening doors for bigger opportunities.
This upcoming film will mark her first major role in a feature film.
Additionally, her previous experience working with comedy sisters Faye and Paula will undoubtedly contribute to her success as a producer.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle’s resentment and envy reached its peak when she discovered that Kim Kardashian would surpass her in both production and acting.
Markle’s fear of being forgotten and her deep-seated insecurities have been driving her actions, according to reports.
Some tabloids have suggested that Markle blamed the WME CEO for missing out on this opportunity, but it was ultimately her own loss.
Despite signing with the prestigious talent agency WME in April, with the support of agent Ari Emanuel, Markle has struggled to make progress in her career.
This setback comes after the cancellation of her arrangement with Spotify.
Initially, there were plans to monetize her social media accounts and revive her blog’s trademark, The Tank.
However, this project also failed, as her strategy to endorse various products did not yield the desired results.
Critics argue that talent agencies like WME have compromised their standards by representing individuals such as Markle and her husband, Harry.
They claim that these agencies prioritize name recognition and financial gain over true talent.
The nepotism prevalent in Hollywood over the past few years has raised questions about the integrity of the industry.
As Markle faces a challenging year ahead in Hollywood, it remains to be seen how she will navigate these obstacles and regain her footing in the entertainment world.
