Gabriel Macht Reveals Harvey Specter Cameo in Suits LA Required ‘Spontaneity and Trust’ to Preserve Legacy

Gabriel Macht returned to his character Harvey Specter for one of the early episodes of Suits L.A.

In this episode, fans appreciated Macht’s portrayal of Specter, and it also renewed attention on the actor. Later, he discussed the intricate layers he experienced revisiting his role.

During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Macht admitted that at first, he didn’t envision himself as the character. But after multiple seasons portraying Harvey, he gained insight into the character’s complexities. Eventually, by the finale of the series, Macht started to embody his on-screen persona in real life.

During an interview with the media, the actor openly discussed many similarities between him and Harvey Specter from Suits, traits that Gabriel Macht’s character lacks. Interestingly, he expressed comfort with these differences. Specifically, the star of Because I Said So mentioned that his character in Suits portrays a tough exterior and an unyielding determination to prove himself. Remarkably, these characteristics resonate with him personally as well.

Discussing the fanbase generated by his roles in Suits, the actor found it astonishing to consider the vast numbers of viewers. Macht elaborated, “The fanaticism surrounding us has been absolutely mind-blowing – people who devote such time to rewatch our series multiple times. I’ve encountered a few individuals who have watched the show not just once, but four, seven, ten, or even fifteen times from start to finish. If you multiply that by 134 episodes…

Among several captivating aspects of the legal drama, one that significantly drew in the audience was the dynamic between Mike Ross and Harvey Specter. Throughout the show’s nine seasons, Mike Ross, portrayed by Patrick J. Adams, played a crucial role in shaping Harvey’s character, pushing him into an entirely different stage by the series finale.

Regarding the connection between him and Adams both on-screen and off-, Macht shared, “I believe it’s the chemistry that audiences enjoy, and Patrick and I shared that camaraderie not just during filming but also in our everyday lives.
