In recent months, the popularity of the series “Suits”, which ended in 2019, has increased significantly. All thanks to the presence of the production in the Netflix library. Therefore, NBC, which produced the series, decided to create a spin-off of the popular series about lawyers.
“Suits” breaks viewing records in streaming. In the spin-off we will move to California
The creator of the sequel to “Suits” will be the same person who was responsible for the original, Aaron Korsh. The man will also be responsible for the script for the first episode. In the spin-off, the action will move to Los Angeles, and the main characters will be played by Lex Scott Davis and Stephen Amell.
“Davis will play the role of Erica Rollins, the star of a law firm who is willing to risk a lot, even the loyalty of her friends, to achieve her goal. Amell, in turn, will play Ted Black – a former federal prosecutor from New York who will try to find his way again in Los Angeles. For 15 years, he has been co-running a “law firm specializing in criminal law and show business,” we read in the station’s summary.
His company is at crisis point and to survive, he must take on a role he has despised throughout his career. Ted is surrounded by a group of distinguished colleagues who test their loyalty to both him and each other, as they cannot help but blend their personal and professional lives. All this happens as the events of the past slowly come to light and we learn why Ted left everything and everyone he loved,” NBC reports.
Is there a chance for Meghan Markle to play a role in the sequel? It’s not impossible, but…
Although production of the series “Suits LA” is scheduled to start at the end of March, at the moment we only know the most important names from the cast. We will probably get the rest of the information in the next few weeks. However, some fans of the original are already wondering how the sequel to “Suits” will connect with the old characters and plots.
Some people also speculate whether there will be a place for Meghan Markle, who played Rachel Zane years ago, in the Californian version of the cult series. She resigned from the role in the series in 2017, when she was already in a relationship with Prince Harry.
It seems that the return of the Duchess of Sussex to the series is unlikely. In one of the interviews, Aaron Korsh announced that none of the cast of the original will appear in “Suits LA”. His words were also confirmed by Rachel Harris, who played Sheila Sazs in “Suits”.
“[Aaron Korsh – przyp. red.] he wants the production to succeed on its own, without the support of the original cast. However, this does not mean that we will not appear,” she announced. And when she was asked about Meghan Markle, she replied without hesitation:
We’re not talking about the duchess. It’s rude. He’s got enough on his mind. You know what I mean? Let’s leave her alone for God’s sake.
However, she spoke this way about the end of her acting career when the final episode of the 7th season of the series was broadcast in 2017, which was also the last one with her participation. – I don’t see it as giving up anything. I just see it as a change. It’s a new chapter, right? Also keep in mind that I was working on [“W garniturach” – przyp. red.] for seven years. We were very, very happy to work on such a long-running show… I’ve ticked it off and I feel very proud of the work I did there, and now it’s time to work with [Harrym – przyp. red.] as a team,” she said in an interview with .
