After the end of the hit show, the actor has disappeared from the TV screens.

Gabriel Macht's acting career began when he was barely eight years old. It took 30 years for the actor to become a star, taking part in the popular TV series Suits as the brilliant Manhattan lawyer Harvey Specter.

During the nine years of its release, the show helped the actor significantly increase his fortune, made him popular with a wide audience, and significantly increased his paychecks.

The drama TV show is set in a fictional law firm in New York City. A successful lawyer Harvey hires an assistant who has not graduated from law school and has little knowledge of the law. But all his life he has dreamed of getting into this profession, has a brilliant mind and a phenomenal memory.

The next project for Macht was the drama series Pearson – a Suits spin-off. The departure of Jessica Pearson in the sixth season of the original show was an unpleasant surprise for fans.

Gina Torres played the head of the law firm where the main characters worked. But fans didn't have too much time to be sad, as the creators of Suits announced the release of the spin-off.

The show was filmed in the same way as the original series, in the legal procedural genre. Pearson's storyline focused not only on Jessica's professional, but also personal life.

The events of the project take place in Chicago, where Jessica moved with her boyfriend in the middle of the sixth season of Suits after she had a re-evaluation of her principles.

Although it would seem that Macht's career would only take off after a hit like Suits, there has been a lull in the actor's film career. After filming Suits and Pearson, Gabriel dedicated himself in family matters for some time, and the coronavirus pandemic that swept the world in 2020 disrupted many of his plans.

However, the actor admits that this time allowed him to rethink his priorities. If Gabriel used to come home when the kids were already asleep, he can now spend much more time with his family.
