As the premiere date of the Suits spinoff approaches, new images have surfaced, providing a look at the entire team of Suits L.A., led by Stephen Amell’s Ted Black. The plot of Suits L.A. revolves around Amell’s character, a former federal prosecutor who now represents high-profile clients at a California law firm. He collaborates with fellow associates Stuart Lane, Erica Rollins, and Rick Dodsen. While the resemblance to the original series remains uncertain, this will be the third installment in the franchise, following the short-lived Pearson in 2019.
It has released images of the Suits L.A. cast, highlighting the entire team as the legal drama returns to the small screen. The pictures show Ted interacting with clients and colleagues, while each character also has their individual moments. Notable scenes include Erica handing Rick a folder at his desk, Stuart in a meeting, and Ted getting into a sleek black car.
What these new images suggest about the upcoming spinoff is that it has a comparable vibe to the original. The new characters in Suits L.A. seem to possess the same blend of professionalism and charm as the original cast, presenting an opportunity for them to become equally memorable. With original creator Aaron Korsh back as showrunner, along with many of the same crew and writers, the series might give the impression that it never left.
The connection to the original doesn’t end behind the scenes. Gabriel Macht’s Harvey Specter is set to have a recurring role in the new series. However, given the focus on the new cast in the images, his presence likely won’t overshadow the budding relationships among the new characters, who will still receive the majority of the attention. Although it’s not the full-blown revival some hoped for after the show’s popularity on Netflix and Peacock, the images indicate that the spinoff is in capable hands with its promising new leads.
Suits L.A.’s new photos offer an ideal preview of how the spinoff will present itself. The new characters seem well-suited for the next wave of legal drama that the show will explore. While the specific details of each episode’s cases are yet to be fully disclosed, the images suggest a tonal similarity to the original series, ensuring a familiar feel. At the same time, there are sufficient differences to prevent it from being a mere repetition, as the new characters will likely carve out a distinct path, making it a worthy successor.
