And that moment arrived with <em data-start=\"413\" data-end=\"423\">Suits LA<\/em>, the new spinoff series expanding the beloved legal universe. Naturally, fans were buzzing: Why did Macht decide to step back into the shoes of Harvey Specter?<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"585\" data-end=\"696\">In a recent chat with <em data-start=\"607\" data-end=\"631\">The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>, Macht finally addressed the question that had everyone curious.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"698\" data-end=\"1158\">He started by reflecting on the overwhelming fan love <em data-start=\"752\" data-end=\"759\">Suits<\/em> has continued to receive long after its finale. \u201cI\u2019ve met people who\u2019ve watched the series four times, seven times, even 15 times all the way through,\u201d he said. With 134 episodes in the bag, the numbers are mind-blowing. He called the show\u2019s continued popularity \u201ccomplete insanity,\u201d yet deeply humbling.

Macht recalled a conversation he had with series creator Aaron Korsh, who pitched the idea of reintroducing original characters into the new <em data-start=\"1473\" data-end=\"1483\">Suits LA<\/em> universe, led by Stephen Amell\u2019s character, Ted Black.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1540\" data-end=\"1757\">Macht, protective of the legacy they\u2019d built, was cautious. \u201cI told Aaron, \u2018Tell me more. Because we wrapped these characters up really gracefully. I feel like we gave the fans the ending they deserved,\u2019\u201d he recalled.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1759\" data-end=\"2030\">But what won him over? The evolving relationship between Ted Black and Harvey Specter\u2014something new, but familiar enough to spark interest. That storyline, combined with the excitement of stepping into this expanded universe, ultimately convinced him to reprise the role.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2032\" data-end=\"2191\">You can catch <em data-start=\"2046\" data-end=\"2056\">Suits LA<\/em> airing on NBC and streaming on Peacock, where Ted Black\u2014and a returning Harvey Specter\u2014are sure to bring fresh drama to the courtroom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s been years since Gabriel Macht hung up Harvey Specter\u2019s legendary pinstripes on Suits, but as fans say, legends never\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":69099,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[19214],"class_list":["post-69098","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-gabriel-macht"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69098","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69098"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69098\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69099"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69098"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69098"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69098"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
