Rick Hoffman to Reprise Louis Litt Role in ‘Suits LA’

Fan-Favorite Character Returns Amidst Spinoff’s Struggle to Capture Original Series’ Essence

Rick Hoffman is set to return as Louis Litt in NBC’s ‘Suits LA,’ appearing in one episode this season with the potential for more if the series is renewed. This marks the second original cast member to return, following Gabriel Macht’s upcoming three-episode appearance as Harvey Specter. However, sources indicate that Louis and Harvey will not share screen time in the current season.

Louis Litt, known for his complex personality and the catchphrase “You just got Litt up,” served as both comic relief and a character with depth in the original series. His return is highly anticipated by fans who appreciated his multifaceted role.

‘Suits LA’ centers on Ted Black (Stephen Amell), a former federal prosecutor from New York who reinvents himself as a top entertainment attorney in Los Angeles. The spinoff has faced challenges in capturing the unique appeal of its predecessor, with critics noting a lack of compelling central themes and character dynamics. The show’s reliance on flashbacks and a convoluted backstory for its main character has been met with mixed reviews.

Hoffman’s return could inject some of the original series’ charm into the spinoff. His portrayal of Louis Litt was a standout in ‘Suits,’ and fans hope his appearance will bring a familiar dynamic to ‘Suits LA.’

Beyond ‘Suits,’ Hoffman has maintained a steady acting career, with roles in series like ‘Billions’ and films such as Eli Roth’s ‘Thanksgiving.’ His versatility as an actor continues to resonate with audiences across various genres.

As ‘Suits LA’ progresses, viewers are eager to see how Hoffman’s character will influence the narrative and whether his presence can bridge the gap between the original series and the spinoff.
