Nothing is ever truly over in Hollywood. The legal drama TV series Suits aired its final episode in 2019. Yet its popularity has only soared since. This continued popularity might explain why the reports of a spinoff series keep on surfacing, with some members of the original cast expressing interest in returning.
During the 2024 Golden Globe Awards, actors Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams, who portray Harvey Specter and Mike Ross, respectively, were invited as presenters for the awards ceremony. Once they took the stage and began their presentation for the award for Best TV Series Drama, audiences were surprised to see Suits co-stars Sarah Rafferty (Donna Paulsen) and Gina Torres (Jessica Pearson) join them onstage.
Troian Bellisario, who made a guest appearance in the show as Claire Bowden, also graced the red carpet event. Macht, Adams, Torres, and Rafferty are part of the main cast that charmed audiences through its nine-season run. Although Adams, Torres, and Meghan Markle (Rachel Zane) departed from the show at the end of the seventh season, the series aired for two more seasons.
Last year, Suits was added to Netflix and Peacock, a move that proved to be very successful for the streaming services. In just a single week, Suits amassed 3.7 billion minutes of viewership, making it the most-watched acquired programming within a week. Shortly after, news emerged that NBCUniversal had commissioned the show's creator, Aaron Korsh, to develop a new offshoot series.
