What the 'Suits' Cast Has Been Up to Since the Show Ended

'Suits' cast

The hottest show of the past year was one nobody could have seen coming. Four years after its series finale aired, everyone and their mother seemed to be watching the USA Network legal drama Suits. The show, a relic of the days when USA was filled with zippy procedurals instead of wrestling, Chucky and Temptation Island, follows a genius conman with a photographic memory who gets hired at a law firm without any of the necessary credentials to be a lawyer. The series ran for nine seasons and introduced the world (and Prince Harry) to future princess Meghan Markle, who played paralegal Rachel Zane. We all know what Meg's gotten up to in the years since she left the show, but what's become of the rest of the main cast? Where else can you watch them? How many times have they reunited to the delight of millions and what have they had to say about the phenomenon now known as the Suitsassaince?

Read on to find out what the cast is up to now.

Suits Cast: Where Are They Now?

Gabriel Macht

Gabriel Macht played cocky lawyer Harvey Specter throughout the entire run of the series, and it's still the most recent role he's played. He has taken the show's resurgence in stride, thanking the fans for their love and giving them exactly what they want: more Harvey Specter. He joined castmates Gina Torres, Patrick J. Adams and Sarah Rafferty on stage at the 2024 Golden Globes to present the award for Best Drama Series, and showed up with Adams in a Super Bowl ad for T-Mobile.

In July 2023, in the midst of the writer and actor strikes, Macht posted on Instagram about the many records broken by Suits on streaming. "I'm humbled that the stories we created and produced for 9 seasons have been watched and rewatched and will continue to create memories for all whose (sic) enjoy the fruits of our labor," he wrote. He went on to express solidarity with all the unions on strike and quoted Harvey in his plea for union workers to stand up to the studios: "I don't play the odds, I play the man."

In February 2024, Macht didn't say no to the idea of playing Harvey again in the upcoming spinoff Suits L.A. “I mean I think it’s in a world where some characters could in fact come [back],” he told The Hollywood Reporter.

Patrick J. Adams

Adams, who played fake lawyer Mike Ross for seven seasons of Suits, has worked fairly steadily since the show ended. He appeared in Prime Video's A League of Their Own adaptation, starred in a 2023 Canadian miniseries called Plan B and will soon star in the BBC crime drama Lockerbie. He and wife Troian Bellisario have worked on several projects together, including Plan B and the podcast series Ad Lucem, and their second child was born in May 2021. Adams also starred in the 2022 Tony-winning revival of Take Me Out alongside Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Jesse Williams.

Adams appeared on stage at The Golden Globes to present the Best Drama Series award, and joined Gabriel Macht in a Super Bowl ad for T-Mobile. He appears to spend a lot of time enjoying hobbies like photography and motorcycles, but the idea of seeing Mike Ross again isn't out of the question. In a Hollywood Reporter interview, he agreed with Macht that the Los Angeles-set spinoff could see familiar faces, dubbing it "the Suits-iverse."

Rick Hoffman

Hoffman played lawyer Louis Litt throughout the entire run of Suits and went from junior partner to name partner to managing partner and father by the series finale. In the years since Suits, Hoffman appeared on Billions and in the movies Thanksgiving and Round and Round—a horror movie and a Hallmark Hanukkah movie, respectively.

While Hoffman did not get a spot in the T-Mobile Super Bowl ad, he did get to face off against Judge Judy and Suits costar Gina Torres in a separate Super Bowl ad for Elf Cosmetics. In a recent interview with AV Club, he said he did not see the show's resurgence coming, but it was "the best thing in the world." He thought Meghan Markle's presence "drew some curiosity" to the series when it arrived on Netflix. "I think when people went to see Meghan on this show that had been talked about, they were like, 'Oh, some of this show's not bad,'" he said. "And then it was just like wildfire."

Meghan Markle

Markle played paralegal-turned-attorney Rachel Zane from day one up until she and new TV husband Mike Ross (Adams) left together at the end of Season 7. Onscreen, they exited to run their own firm that focused on class-action suits. Offscreen, Markle was retiring from acting and getting married to Prince Harry, beginning her life as a working royal.

In 2020, the couple stepped back from royal duties and moved to Southern California, where they're now raising their two children, Archie and Lilibet, and running a production company. Markle is also relaunching her podcast "Archetypes," which was dropped by Spotify but picked up by Lemonada Media, and appears to be building a lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, which she recently teased with a return to Instagram. While the Duchess has taken a step back from acting, she's still giving us iconic TV moments. Few will ever forget that interview she and Harry did with Oprah in 2021, in which Oprah asked, "Were you silent, or were you silenced?"

Despite her busy post-Suits life, Markle has not forgotten about her television family. When Variety asked her about the show's resurgence, she said, "Isn't that wild?" She then went on to praise the cast, crew and the show itself. "We had a really fun time. I was on it for seven seasons, so quite a bit," she said. "But it’s hard to find a show you can binge-watch that many episodes of these days, so that could have something to do with it. But good shows are everlasting.”

Sarah Rafferty

Rafferty played Donna Paulsen for the entire series, starting as Harvey's secretary and ending it as his wife—and the firm's COO. Rafferty went on to appear as a patient in three episodes of Grey's Anatomy, then made the move to doctor on Chicago Med. Most recently, she starred in My Life with the Walter Boys, a teen drama series on Netflix.

She joined her castmates to present at the Golden Globes, and got a brief but memorable role in the Elf Cosmetics commercial starring Rick Hoffman, Gina Torres, Judge Judy and a few others (including Ronald Gladden from Jury Duty). She told ET she was "thrilled" to see that people were finding new meaning in the show, and revealed that she hadn't actually seen the whole series herself. She also encouraged fans to "request" that Donna Paulsen show up in the upcoming LA spinoff.

Gina Torres

In many ways, Gina Torres was and is the queen of Suits. She played Jessica Pearson, a founder and name partner from day one who served as a mentor to the other partners, and whose support of Mike and his dirty little law degree secret got her disbarred in Season 6. She got her own spinoff, Pearson, in 2019, but it only lasted one season.

Since Suits, Torres has kept herself very, very busy. She lent her voice to multiple TV cartoons, a video game and a podcast series, and appeared on both Riverdale and Westworld. She now stars on 9-1-1: Lone Star alongside Rob Lowe. She joined the show in Season 2, replacing Liv Tyler as the new EMS captain.

Torres presented at the Golden Globes alongside her former Suits castmates and faced off against Hoffman and Judge Judy in the Elf commercial. Last summer, as writers and actors joined forces to strike, Torres and Rafferty reunited on the picket lines to reminisce about the show that "continues to lap the world" and point out that "All those views, once upon a time might have added up to rent, a phone payment, a DWP bill," but now they add up to "barely enough" to buy a Happy Meal.

Amanda Schull

Schull, perhaps best known for starring in the 2000 dance movie Center Stage, played Katrina Bennett, an associate hired in Season 2 in a recurring role. Schull was promoted to series regular in Season 8, and Katrina ended the series as a name partner in the firm Litt Wheeler Williams Bennett. In the years since, she's made appearances on MacGyver and NCIS, and starred in multiple Hallmark movies: Project Christmas Wish (2020), One Summer (2021), Marry Go Round (2022) and The Blessing Bracelet (2023).

In 2023, she reunited with Torres on 9-1-1: Lone Star for five episodes before her character was brutally killed off.

Dule Hill

Psych and West Wing star Dule Hill joined Suits in Season 7 as Alex Williams, an old friend of Harvey's whom he hired as a senior partner. By the end, Alex was one of the name partners and fit in like he'd always been there.

Since Suits, Hill appeared on Black Monday and This Is Us, and also starred in two Psych movies: Lassie Come Home and This Is Gus. He took on the role of patriarch Bill Williams in ABC's Wonder Years reimagining, which was unfortunately canceled after two seasons. In 2024, he's planning a Psych fan convention and launching a new docuseries called The Express Way with Dule Hill. The show, which he produces and hosts, showcases artists across America and will debut on PBS in April.

Katherine Heigl

Heigl, best known for her work on Grey's Anatomy, joined Suits in Season 8 as Samantha Wheeler, a talented new partner who ended the series with her name on the letterhead. She joined the show after her high-profile drama Doubt (which also starred Dule Hill) failed to get a second season on CBS in 2017, and after Suits, she starred in the movies Our House and Fear of Rain.

Starting in 2021, she starred in the two-season Netflix hit Firefly Lane, alongside Scrubs alum Sarah Chalke. She also runs a store inspired by mountain living and founded a pet supply company called Badlands Ranch.

Wendell Pierce

Beginning in Season 2, Pierce, iconic star of The Wire, joined Suits as lawyer Robert Zane. He was the father of Rachel Zane (played by Meghan Markle), though Rachel didn't love telling people that because it inevitably made them treat her differently.

Since Suits wrapped up in 2019, Pierce appeared in 10 episodes of Chicago P.D. and lent his powerful voice to multiple series. He also appeared on Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan and Power Book III: Raising Kanan, but he's these days seen regularly on TV as the police captain in CBS' new Good Wife spinoff, Elsbeth. The biggest news of all, however, is that he'll play editor Perry White in James Gunn's new Superman movie, which is currently filming.

Rachael Harris

Rachael Harris joined Suits in Season 2 as Sheila Sazs, a Harvard employee invited to assess the law firm. While she was the one inadvertently responsible for telling on Mike and getting him eventually sent to prison, Louis fell in love with her and their daughter was born in the series finale.

Harris has become a regular face on TV, starring on Lucifer and the Goosebumps reboot. She also showed up as the ghost of Sam's mother on CBS' Ghosts and appeared in episodes of Fantasy Island, The Sex Lives of College Girls and the Reno 911! revival. She can also be seen in Jerry Seinfeld's upcoming satire Unfrosted: The Pop-Tart Story, which is coming to Netflix in May.

Aloma Wright

Aloma Wright joined Suits as Gretchen Bodinski in Season 5. She was first hired as Harvey's secretary when Donna briefly left him to work for Louis, but then worked for Louis for the rest of the series. Wright was previously best known for playing Laverne on Scrubs, and since Suits wrapped, she's made appearances on Raven's Home and in several TV Christmas movies, including Baking Christmas, The Christmas Edition and Our Christmas Journey. Since 2020, she's been appearing on Tyler Perry's Nickelodeon show Young Dylan.

Suits is now streaming on Peacock and Netflix.
