‘Suits’ Original Star Gabriel Macht to Join ‘LA’ Spinoff at NBC
variety.comEmily Longeretta UPDATED: “Suits LA” is getting a visitor from New York City. Gabriel Macht, who portrayed successful and charismatic attorney Harvey Specter in the original “Suits” is set to appear in the NBC spinoff in a recurring role across three episodes.
Macht posted a video on his official Instagram account in which he appeared to be getting into costume as Specter with the caption, “When an old friend is in need…it’s time to take care of things and make those very ‘things’ right.” When “Suits” wrapped up in 2019, Harvey and his wife, Donna (Sarah Rafferty), moved to Seattle, working alongside Mike Ross (Patrick J.
Adams) and Rachel Zane (Meghan Markle). While Adams and Markle exited the show early, Macht appeared in all 134 episodes of the nine-season drama.
Reps for NBC did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Macht joining the spinoff. While the spinoff, created by Aaron Korsh, will take place in the same universe as the original, it will follow a new law firm in Los Angeles led by Ted Black (Stephen Amell).
