SUITS LA Will Bring Back This Iconic Character
By Movieguide® Contributor
SUITS LA is about to get Litt up.
Deadline has confirmed that Rick Hoffman will return as the beloved Louis Litt in one episode of SUITS LA.
Among Hoffman, Gabriel Macht also returned to reprise the role of Harvey Spector.
Creator Aaron Korsh and Macht were able to reconnect during a commercial shot for the Super Bowl.
Korsh told The Hollywood Reporter, “When we shot the pilot, we put a picture of him in the pilot without me having discussed it with Gabriel. I knew we could always take it out if he didn’t want to do it, but it would be harder to put back in.
“So we did it and when we got a [series] pickup I called Gabriel and just asked him if he wanted to come play and he graciously said yes,” Korsh added.
As Korsh began to figure out how to introduce new and old characters, he knew he “wanted to make sure it was an organic bringing people in, not just a parade of old characters.”
“I would love to have them all on, [but] I don’t want to have them all on one after the other because I think it harms the original and the new show to do that. So we’re just going to see how it goes,” Korsh said.

Macht agreed, saying if the fans “can let go of that cast and welcome a new cast, there’s so many similarities and enough differences that people are going to be like alright, I can get into this.
“What Aaron’s done with inviting me back is I think it does open up opportunities for other original cast members to come in and out and play and have little Easter eggs,” Macht added.
