Aaron Korsh , the creator of the original series, is steering the ship for this new venture, but he's adamant about establishing Suits: L.A. as its own success story, distinct from its predecessor. This decision, although surprising to many given the show's immense popularity, was confirmed by Rachael Harris , who portrayed Sheila Sazs in the original series, during her recent appearance at the MUAHS Awards in Beverly Hills.

Harris revealed, "When I got wind that they were doing a Suits L.A., I was like, okay, so when am I working? And he was very clear with me that no one from the previous cast is going to be in Suits L.A." Despite speculation about Meghan Markle's potential return to acting amidst tensions within the royal family, there's no concrete role for her or any other original cast members in the spin-off.


However, Harris hinted at the possibility of cameo appearances, stating, "I feel confident that they want this to soar on its own without any of the original cast. That doesn't mean that we won't pop in." She emphasized that Korsh hadn't mentioned anything about Meghan Markle's involvement, underscoring the need to respect her privacy and current endeavors.

In essence, while Suits fans may have to bid farewell to the nostalgia of seeing familiar faces in Suits: L.A., they can anticipate a fresh narrative unfolding on the West Coast, independent of past connections.
