Is there a possibility of the original Suits cast reuniting for a spin-off movie? The show’s stars believe it could happen with the approval of the show’s creator, Aaron Korsh.
During a panel at the ATX TV Festival in Austin, Texas, on Sunday (June 2), Entertainment Tonight, Patrick J. Adams, Sarah Rafferty, Amanda Schull, and Dulé Hill discussed the potential of a film adaptation of the popular legal drama.
“Honestly, I think it wouldn’t surprise me if they did a model where you end up having some type of film,” noted Hill, who portrayed Alex Williams in the final three seasons of the show. He also mentioned the possibility of a project or movie on Peacock for the show.
“Oh my gosh, we’d have so much fun,” exclaimed Rafferty, known for her role as Donna Paulsen throughout all nine seasons of the series.
Adams, who played Mike Ross, also shared his thoughts, mentioning that while a movie spin-off isn’t out of the question, much depends on Korsh. Currently, Korsh is focused on the Suits: LA spin-off, set to star Stephen Amell and Josh McDermitt in lead roles.

“I don’t want to speak for Aaron, but the motivation for him is always story, and if he sits there and he comes up with something that really excited him — whether it be with these characters or new characters like Suits: LA — then when he gets energized about something, something great happens,” explained Adams.
He continued, “That’s how our show happened and that’s how Suits: LA is happening. So I know from him that he’s excited about the idea of some sort of film format for us, but, you know, I think his main job is getting Suits: LA off the ground at the moment.”
“It’s gonna depend on a million things if that can happen, but it is possible,” Adams concluded.
Each cast member agreed they would pick up the phone if Korsh called and asked them to return for a movie spin-off. However, there is one original cast member who might be more difficult to entice back — Meghan Markle.
Markle played Rachel Zane across seven seasons of Suits but retired from acting after marrying Prince Harry in 2018. The Duchess of Sussex told Variety in 2022, “I’m done. I guess never say never, but my intention is to absolutely not [return to acting].”
But perhaps she could be convinced to make a brief cameo appearance? After all, she recently popped up in a small acting role in an ad for a coffee company she invested in.
Regardless, between the Suits: LA spin-off and potential movie, there is a lot for Suits fans to get excited about.
