Earlier this month, it was confirmed that Suits: L.A. will involve an entirely new batch of lawyers with Ted Black, a former prosecutor turned firm owner leading them. That being said, Adams and Macht, who played Mike Ross and Harvey Specter in the original, told THR that there is a possibility that some of the Suits characters may actually make a return.

“I mean I think it's in a world where some characters could in fact come [back],” Macht said. “The Suits-iverse as it's referred to,” Adams added. However, the duo made it clear that they haven't yet been asked to appear in Suits: L.A.

Be that as may, the best closer in L.A. and his associate did not hesitate to share advice for the new lawyers of the franchise who are yet to be cast. “Wear comfortable shoes,” Adams quipped, while Macht added, “If they can get their hands on a digital device where that can take dialogue and download it to a little chip and stick it in their head, it might be a lot easier for them to say the words every day.”

“I had no problem with that, so I don't know what you're talking about,” Adams playfully remarked before getting serious. “It's a marathon, not a sprint, and you're going to have a ball because Aaron’s a great writer, and they’re good people to make a show with,” he said.
