Earlier in March, it was confirmed that Rick Hoffman will be reprising his role as Louis Litt in one of the episodes of Suits LA. Two months down the line, we finally know when the actor will be returning to the franchise.

NBC has launched a preview for the upcoming episode 12, titled Angry Sylvester, which shows Louis Litt making his debut in the spin-off. The fan-favorite attorney from Suits meets with his spin-off counterpart, Stuart Lane.

The teaser has gotten fans excited, who are feeling nostalgic after seeing their favorite character’s return to the screen. Louis becomes the third character from Suits to appear on the spin-off, after Harvey Specter and Daniel Hardman.

The teaser for Suits LA Episode 12 showcases Louis Litt coming across Stuart Lane at an anger management program. In the previous episode, we saw Yvette Nicole Brown getting into a fight with Stuart Lane and asking him to manage his anger.

It looks like Stuart listened to her advice and has joined a program, where he happens to meet Louis, another attorney who does have some anger issues. Louis uses his iconic catchphrase, ‘You’re about to get Litt up,’ on Stuart and then takes him for mud-bathing.

Fans of the original show would remember how desperate Louis was to take his friends, especially Harvey, for mud-bathing, where he could connect with them. Viewers are now eagerly awaiting the release of the episode, which is scheduled to air on May 11, 2025. Meanwhile, they are excitedly sharing their reactions on social media. One fan commented on YouTube:

Rick Hoffman’s return in Suits LA was announced in March 2025. Earlier than that, series creator Aaron Korsh had stated that Harvey Specter would not be the only character from Suits to appear in the spin-off.

Meanwhile, Gabriel Macht has already made his three confirmed appearances in the show, in flashback sequences as well as in the present timeline. He helped Ted Black bring the mob boss Pellegrini to justice. David Costabile has also been seen making a cameo as the villainous Daniel Hardman in a previous episode.

The main cast members of Suits LA include Stephen Amell as Ted Black, Lex Scott Davis as Erica Rollins, Bryan Greenberg as Rick Dodsen, Josh McDermitt as Stuart Lane, Maggie Grace as Amanda Stevens, Rachelle Goulding as Samantha Railsback, Carson A. Egan as Eddie Black, and Azita Ghanizada as Rosalyn.
