NBC's SUITS: LA
  • Maggie Grace, Matt Letscher, Sofia Pernas and Carson A. Egan have landed recurring roles on the upcoming Suits spinoff starring Stephen Amell. Grace previously starred for three seasons in AMC's Fear the Walking Dead and in the Taken film franchise. Letscher starred for two seasons in Netflix's Narcos: Mexico and recurred on The CW's The Flash. Pernas starred for two seasons in CBS' Blood & Treasure and recurs on CBS' Tracker. Egan will make his acting debut on the drama.
  • Grace will play Amanda Stevens. Confident and sharp-witted, she is a pro bono lawyer who rents space at Black/Lane law firm in order to have an upscale address for her own practice. Independently wealthy, Amanda takes on clients who have nowhere else to turn. Because she doesn't work for Ted (Amell), the two could potentially explore the clear sparks between them.
  • Letscher will play Ted's father who is powerful, emotionally unavailable, and rules through fear and intimidation. He has alienated himself from Ted because of the way he treated Ted's brother Eddie. Though Ted's father has committed unforgivable acts, he still wants to have a relationship with Ted, even though Ted wants nothing to do with him.
  • Pernas will play Elizabeth Smith, a powerhouse attorney in the District Attorney's office. She goes head to head with Ted in a high-profile murder trial. Smart, no-nonsense and up to the task, she proves to be a formidable opponent who has more than a few tricks up her sleeve.
  • Egan will play Eddie Black, Ted's brother. He is sweet, good-humored and nurturing. Ted seems to rely on Eddie's loving presence even more than Eddie relies on him.
