As a devoted fan of Wendell Pierce‘s illustrious career, I eagerly await his return as Robert Zane in the upcoming Suits: LA spinoff. His journey from The Wire to Suits has been nothing short of captivating, and his portrayal of a complex character like Robert Zane only adds to his stellar acting resume.
Wendell Pierce is ready to return as Robert Zane in the Suits spinoff.
I’ve just learned, excitedly, that I might step back into my old shoes for the new spin-off of Suits, titled Suits: LA. This news comes after the surprising surge in streaming views for the original series. I can hardly wait to see what’s next!
Pierce expressed his amazement by saying that it was the most intriguing event when, unexpectedly, our series found its way onto Netflix and gained immense popularity. He then recounted the moment he discovered the surge in viewership for Suits in 2023. “We received a group text from Gabriel Macht, the main actor,” he said, “and he simply sent a message to all of us saying, ‘What on earth is going on?’ At that point, we were all puzzled and asked, ‘What’s happening?’
Following its debut on Netflix last year, “Suits” – previously airing from 2011 to 2019 – consistently ranked at the peak of streaming rankings during the summer and fall seasons. Moreover, it held the title for being the most-watched show in a single year. Additionally, the series is also available on Peacock.
Speaking about Suits: LA, the actor from The Wire expressed his hope for chances to make guest appearances, considering the minimal remuneration the original cast received due to the recent rise in streaming popularity. Last year, the show’s main actors were among those who openly voiced their discontent over compensation issues during the actors’ strike.
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but share some exciting news: A fresh spin-off of the beloved series “Suits” is currently in production! With this in mind, I can only hope that my cohorts and I will have the opportunity to make an appearance on it. And just to add a bit of humor, let me say this: Given that we staged a strike due to our lack of involvement in the show’s recent comeback, I sure do hope they ask us to come back for a cameo!
Pierce added in a serious tone, “I would love to make a cameo on the show.”
In the TV series ‘Suits’, a role was played by Pierce who became Rachel Zane’s (Meghan Markle) father on screen. Initially, his character worked at a rival law firm but later joined forces with Harvey Specter (Macht) and Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman) to establish a new firm. Interestingly, Rachel Zane ended up marrying Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), a character in the same show, portrayed by Pierce’s on-screen daughter.
Despite the uncertainty at present about how Pierce’s character might align with the Suits spinoff, the series focuses on Ted Black, a former prosecutor (played by Stephen Amell), who transfers from New York City to Los Angeles and takes on the challenging role of representing some of the city’s most influential clients.
