Suits Creator Isn’t Interested In Continuing The Story, Despite The Series’ Newfound Success
Some things are better left as they are.
It's not surprising that a show like Suits reaches a whole new level of success and popularity after its second release on Netflix. By reaching and engaging a new audience, a once-beloved show can have its own renaissance.
While there are some questions to be asked about Netflix, its residuals system, and the ethics behind the network, one cannot argue with its power to further popularize content. After all, most creators want to reach as many people as possible with their art, and Netflix helps them do just that.
Right now, the question many viewers have is: is there a possibility of a Suits reboot? Living in an age of spinoffs, reboots, and remakes, it's fair to wonder if this is the next step for the show that millions love. However, the show's creator, Aaron Korsh, has a very firm stance on the matter.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Korsh shared his thoughts on the possibility of continuing the story:
“When it was over, I was very satisfied with it. I managed not to be ashamed of any of the episodes we did. <...> If someone reached out and the cast was into it, I would consider it, if I could come up with something that excited me. But if I could wave a magic wand and get another show on the air, it wouldn’t be a continuation of Suits,” he said.
Unwilling to reboot or pick up where the story left off in the finale, Korsh teases that there is one spinoff he would like to see come to life. There's one character whose story remains untold, and that's Robert Zane, Rachel's father, portrayed on the show by Wendell Pierce. A prequel like this could be very exciting to both watch and make.
If you wanted to watch Suits but never got a chance to get into it, this is your sign. The show is now available to stream not only on Amazon Prime Video and Peacock TV, but also on Netflix.
