Suits Spin-Off to Focus on Gina Torres
Development has begun on a Suits spin-off focusing on Gina Torres character Jessica Pearson.
Torres recently departed the show midway through season six in an amicable departure due to the actress’ desire to return to her home base in Los Angeles (“Suits” films in Toronto). In the series her character left the firm, and New York, to start anew in Chicago. Universal Cable Productions have begun working on the pilot but, so far, the idea has not been pitched to USA.
Torres had previously indicated that if “Suits” were shot in L.A., she’d stick with it right to the end.
