Gabriel Macht Returns as Harvey Specter in Suits LA Spinoff

Gabriel Macht, known for his role as Harvey Specter in the hit TV show Suits, is making a comeback as the iconic character in the new spinoff Suits LA. After initially being set on never returning to the character, Macht’s decision to reprise the role was influenced by the fans and creator Aaron Korsh.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Macht expressed his gratitude for the opportunities Suits had provided him but emphasized that he was ready to move on from the character of Harvey Specter. However, Korsh’s pitch for the Suits LA spinoff intrigued Macht, leading to his eventual return as Harvey.

The new show follows a group of lawyers in LA, led by Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor turned entertainment lawyer. Macht’s character, Harvey Specter, will make an appearance in the series, with the details surrounding his return being kept under wraps.

Macht’s decision to return to Suits LA was driven by his desire to support the new venture and pass the metaphorical baton to the new cast. While initially hesitant due to his focus on family and other ventures, Macht ultimately saw the opportunity as a way to show his appreciation to the fans.

Fans of the original series can look forward to potential cameos from other Suits characters in the spinoff, as Macht envisions a future where the franchise continues to expand. Stay tuned for the premiere of Suits LA on Sunday, Feb. 23 on NBC.
