In an Instagram post, Macht teased the return with a video of his outfit — which featured a shirt with the initials “H.S.” stitched in and shoes that had the name “Harvey” in the soles.

“When an old friend is in need… it’s time to take care of things and make those very ‘things’ right,” he captioned it.

Suits L.A. will be led by Arrow alum Stephen Amell as Ted Black, a “former federal prosecutor from New York, has reinvented himself representing the most powerful clients in Los Angeles,” per the show’s official description.

Other cast members include The Walking Dead actor Josh McDermitt as Stuart Lane, the co-founder of Black Lane Law, and Lex Scott Davis as Erica Rollins, "a savvy and strong-willed rising star who works for Ted Black," per Deadline.

The show, which is set to premiere in February 2025, will also feature Troy Winbush as Kevin, Alice Lee as Leah and Bryan Greenberg as Rick Dodsen.

It isn’t clear if any other familiar faces will appear on Suits L.A., but Macht’s co-star Patrick J. Adams, who played Mike Ross, admitted in January that he would join the reboot if given the opportunity.

"If we got the phone call, if I got the phone call, I'm ready to suit up again,” Adams told ET's Rachel Smith during Variety and ET's Golden Globes 2024 pre-show. “I love the show, I love the character. And I loved working with all these people."

Adams recently launched a Suits rewatch podcast with castmate Sarah Rafferty, who starred as Donna Paulsen on the legal drama, where they discuss inside details of old episodes.

In October, she opened up to PEOPLE about her onscreen romance with Macht’s Specter, revealing they even made a bet about whether their characters would end up together.

"I don't think anybody ever knew [Donna and Harvey] were going to be an end game," she explained. "I had a conversation once with Gabriel, but there was a point maybe right before season 9, where he was like, 'I think they're going to do this. They're going to get the characters together.' And I was like, 'I don't think so.'"

"So I lost the bet is what I'm saying," she joked. "I did not think it was going to happen."

Although Adams and co-star Meghan Markle left the show after season 7, Rafferty and Macht stayed for all nine seasons spanning 134 episodes. The series had a resurgence in popularity in 2023 when it was added to Netflix, racking up 3 billion viewing minutes within the first week on the streaming platform.
