Get ready, ‘Suits’ fans! The legal drama universe is back, and this time, it’s headed to sunny Los Angeles with a brand-new spinoff. As NBC prepares to premiere Suits LA, a familiar face is making a return: Gabriel Macht’s iconic Harvey Specter! Fans will be thrilled to hear that Harvey is filming for multiple episodes in season 1, bringing back all the sharp wit and charm we’ve missed.
In a recent interview with ScreenRant, Lex Scott Davis, who plays Erica Rollins in Suits LA, shared her excitement about Harvey’s return. Although they haven’t filmed Harvey’s episodes yet, Davis couldn’t hide her enthusiasm. She even joked about showing up on set just to meet Gabriel Macht, even though she’s not scheduled to work with him. “I think I want to show up just to meet him and show my respects,” she said, clearly eager to share a moment with the legend himself.
Davis also praised Macht for his contribution to the original Suits series, calling it a “passing of the torch” moment. Before filming even started, Gabriel had sent the cast a heartfelt message, showcasing the mutual respect between the new and returning cast members.
And that’s not all! Davis also shared her dream guest star: Gina Torres as the powerhouse Jessica Pearson. She imagines a magical scene between Jessica and Erica and is hopeful that Torres will make a return. Whether or not we’ll see Jessica back in Suits LA is still up in the air, but with Suits creator Aaron Korsh involved, anything is possible.
So when can we expect Harvey to appear? Based on filming schedules, it looks like we might have to wait until the middle or end of the season for his big return. But with so many surprises in store, it’s clear that Suits LA is about to get even more thrilling.
With the door wide open for other familiar faces to join, who knows what’s next? Whether it’s more Suits legends returning or new characters shaking things up, the legal drama universe is just getting started. Stay tuned!
