IF YOU'VE FOUND YOURSELF with a legal-drama-shaped hole in your life since the series finale of Suits in 2019, you're in luck-because series creator Aaron Korsh is back in action, developing "a Suits offshoot" for NBC.
After initial reports emerged last year that a Suits reboot was going ahead the plot and several cast members have now been revealed. Also, we have a title: Suits: LA.
The original drama was an absolute hit, running for nine seasons and creating stars from its mainly fresh face cast including the now-Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle. While Suits: LA isn't technically a reboot (more on that below), the president of Universal International Studios, Beatrice Springborn previously said the show will"have the same energy and good looking people that the original did."

What is Suits: LA about?
Suits: LA will not be a reboot of the original Suits series, per se, but will be set in the same universe. Deadline notes that it's also not technically a spinoff, but rather, "a Suits universe series in the vein of the CSI and NCIS franchises featuring new characters in a new location, Los Angeles."
The film's official logline reads: "His firm is at a crisis point, and in order to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career. Ted is surrounded by a stellar group of characters who test their loyalties to both Ted and each other while they can't help but mix their personal and professional lives. All of this is going on while events from years ago slowly unravel that led Ted to leave behind everything and everyone he loved."
Suits: LA cast
Unfortunately, none of the cast from the original series has been confirmed to appear in Suits: LA.
Stephen Amell will lead the cast as Ted Black, "a charismatic force of nature who puts his own needs above others."
Amell will be joined by Troy Winbush as Kevin, an old friend and ex-partner of Black's, "who is a former FBI agent and now a private detective." Josh McDermitt is also on board as Stuart Lane, Black's friend and company co-founder. Finally, Lex Scott Davis will feature as Erica Rollins, an employee of Black's described as, "a savvy and strong-willed rising star."
Suits: LA release date
Unfortunately, we will likely have to wait some time for Suits: LA to hit our screens.
Deadline reported that the production was slated to begin in March 2024, so a late 2024 or early 2025 release seems likely.
