Patrick J. Adams Reveals THIS Moment From Suits ‘Instantly’ Helped Change His Life

As a dedicated follower of Patrick J. Adams‘ career, I can truly appreciate his heartfelt reflections on his transformative journey with Suits. The pilot episode that launched this legal drama series was undeniably the catalyst for Adams’ life-altering experiences, both professionally and personally.


More recently, Patrick J. Adams reminisced about his time filming the debut episode of the hit legal drama series Suits, an experience that significantly altered his acting journey and life for the better. In this show, Adams portrayed Mike Ross, a remarkably intelligent individual who dropped out of college but possessed an exceptional memory, managing to establish himself as a lawyer despite having never attended law school.

From its premiere in 2011 up until season 7 in 2018, the actor was a mainstay in the series, sharing the screen with Meghan Markle (who played Rachel Zane). However, both of them left the show in 2018. Later on, Adams made a comeback for a special guest role during the ninth and final season that debuted in 2019. For more information, keep reading!

Patrick J. Adams, in an episode of Sidebar: A Suits Watch Podcast that he co-hosts with Sarah Rafferty, recently reminisced about a key event in his character Mike Ross’s life and his own acting journey. This defining moment was highlighted during the pilot episode of Suits, and it played a crucial role in shaping both his career as an actor and Mike Ross’s storyline on the show.

The actor explained to Rafferty, “It feels strange when a scene on set seems like the moment your life shifts, doesn’t it? That’s where my life started to change dramatically.” He went on to say, “This show has had a profound impact on me. It’s reshaped my career path, altered my work habits, and affected the people around me.” Adams admitted that “a great deal of things wouldn’t have transpired if it hadn’t been for this show.”

The scene mentioned by Patrick J. Adams highlights his character, Mike Ross, a college dropout with no law school background. In a crucial instance, Mike is given an associate position at the Pearson Hardman law firm by Harvey Specter (portrayed by Gabriel Macht), who usually recruits only individuals from Harvard Law School.

Caught off guard during an interview with none other than the legendary Harvey Specter, I, a fervent admirer turned unexpected intruder, left him astounded by my prodigious memory and unrelenting ambition to practice law. Intrigued by my audacity and potential, he swiftly offered me a job on the spot, forever altering the course of my life.

He further explained that he could narrow it all down to one specific scene between Harvey and Mike in that room, describing the experience as “pretty wild.”

In June, Adams got together with several of his Suits co-actors such as Sarah Rafferty, Dulé Hill, Abigail Spencer, and Amanda Schull, at the ATX TV Festival in Austin, Texas, to mark five years since the series finale. As reported by People magazine, an attendee asked Adams about the prospect of a Suits film.

The actor stated, “Indeed, and I’d add that although I lack power or authority in this matter, there is a new Suits: L.A. series being produced, spearheaded by Suits creator Aaron Korsh. I believe he would concur.” He further noted that a Suits movie might be possible if various conditions align, expressing optimism about its potential realization.
