Yahoo News ‘Suits’ Season 9 Will Head to Netflix Next Month
The ninth season of Suits will head to Netflix on July 1, the streamer announced Sunday. The final installment of last year’s viral phenomenon was previously only available on Peacock.
The news came as castmembers Patrick J. Adams, Sarah Rafferty, Dulé Hill, Amanda Schull, Abigail Spencer and former USA Network president Jeff Wachtel gathered Sunday for a reunion panel presented by Tudum at the ATX TV Festival in Austin, Texas.

Suits, which originally premiered on USA Network from 2011 to 2019, followed Mike Ross (Adams), a college dropout with a photographic memory who is hired at a New York law firm by Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht). The show’s first eight seasons debuted on Netflix last year to great success — by the end of 2023, it was the most streamed show of the year.
Following the newfound success of the series, NBC ordered a pilot for spinoff show Suits: L.A. earlier this year. The project, helmed by original creator Aaron Korsh, will follow a former New York prosecutor (played by Stephen Amell) who now leads a Los Angeles law firm specializing in criminal and entertainment law.
“His firm is at a crisis point,” the show’s logline reads. “In order to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career.”
The show does not yet have an airdate.
Also during the ATX TV Festival panel, a fan asked if the cast or creators would be interested in doing a reunion movie.
“I am a person of no power or authority, but obviously, there’s a Suits: L.A. show that is being made. That is the focus of Aaron [Korsh], I think he would agree,” Adams said. “But it’s definitely something he’s interested in doing, in trying to get the band back together. So it depends on a million things if that can happen, but is it possible? I think it is possible.”
