“So you’re the mighty Ted Black,” opens NBC’s trailer for spin-off series, Suits LA.

Stephen Amell (Arrow, Heels) stars as that attorney, who has arrived in Los Angeles to reinvent himself after working as a federal prosecutor in New York City. He thinks quite a bit of himself, declaring, “I’m the best attorney in the country.” 

In his new role at his new firm, he finds himself on the other side of the law, representing many of the city’s richest and powerful people instead of prosecuting them. While the show will take on a case (or two) of the week, it will also explore Black’s backstory and what led him to leave his high–powered job in NYC to decamp to LA.  

Besides Amell, Suits LA also stars Lex Scott Davis as Erica Rollins, Josh McDermitt as Stuart Lane and Bryan Greenberg as Rick Dodsen. The above trailer also teases the return of Gabriel Macht as Harvey Specter from the original series as well as guest appearances from Victoria Justice, Patton Oswalt and Brian Baumgartner.

Suits – which first introduced the world to Meghan Markle, the future Duchess of Sussex – aired from 2011-19 on USA Network. The show made a surprise return to the spotlight when it topped Netflix’s charts last year when the service started streaming the show. As a result of the show’s re-discovered popularity, NBC put a spin off into production, while NBC sold Suits into syndication. 

Aaron Korsh, who created and executive produced the original Suits, returns to write and executive produce. David Bartis, Doug Liman, Gene Klein, Anton Cropper, Genevieve Sparling, Rick Muirragui and Jon Cowan also executive produce. Suits LA is produced by UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group.

Suits LA premieres on NBC on Sunday, February 23 at 9 p.m. ET/PT and will stream the next day on Peacock.
