‘Suits’ Shatters Viewing Record on Netflix: Where Are the Stars Now?
A new title on Netflix seemingly Suits viewers just fine. The 2011 USA Network legal drama recently shattered a Netflix record, becoming the streaming service’s most-watched acquired series across one measurement week after logging 3.14 billion watched minutes from June 26 to July 2.
Now, Suits’ immense popularity on Netflix — which comes more than four years after its series finale — has fans wondering if a 10th season might be in the cards.
While keeping your fingers crossed, scroll down to see what former Suits stars are up to as their show hits it big on Netflix.
Gabriel Macht (Harvey Specter)
Macht hasn’t acted on screen since taking off Harvey’s suit and tie, having told TV Insider in 2019 that he wanted to spend time with his family and explore other interests after finishing Suits. However, in June, he posted an Instagram video to hype up the show’s Netflix debut.
Patrick J. Adams (Mike Ross)
On TV, Adams portrayed astronaut John Glenn in The Right Stuff and recurred as Charlie in A League of Their Own. He also bared it all on Broadway in Take Me Out. And earlier this year, Adams starred in the Canadian drama series Plan B.

Markle is, of course, the Duchess of Sussex, having married Prince Harry in 2018 after leaving Suits. The duo stepped back from their duties as senior royals in 2020, and they later spoke out about the monarchy in the Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan.
