Suits LA is due to premiere on NBC on February 23, 2025. The series was first green lit in 2023 after the short-lived Pearson spin-off aired in 2019.
The original Suits aired from 2011 to 2019 and follows the exploits of Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) and Harvey Specter (Macht) at a fictional corporate law firm in New York City.
In June this year, Adams expressed his interest in turning the hit law series into a film. He revealed that series creator Korsh was seemingly interested in a potential film. “It’s definitely something he’s interested in doing, in trying to get the band back together. So it depends on a million things if that can happen, but is it possible? I think it is possible,” he said.

Adams then said that he would be keen on a film, while cast mate Dulé Hill also expressed his interest in reprising his role.
Suits LA will include new characters and a fresh setting. Unlike numerous shows now getting prequel or sequel series, Suits LA will be neither – it will be an entirely new story set in the world of Suits.
Suits LA will star Stephen Amell, Josh McDermitt, Lex Scott David, Bryan Greenberg and more.
