USA Network has Renewed the legal drama for an eighth season as the series prepares to say goodbye to Patrick J. Adams and Meghan Markle .
The departure of Adams and Markle indicate a likely overhaul of the series as the characters — legal prodigy Mike Ross and savvy paralegal Rachel Zane — have been romantically involved and central to recent storylines.
“Speaking of days to come, I am incredibly excited to welcome back our phenomenal crew and cast – Gabriel, Sarah, Rick and Dulé – who will continue the roller coaster ride with all of our amazing fans.
Korsh is shepherding a planted “Suits” spinoff revolving around the character played by actress Gina Torres, who left the series during its sixth season.
Adams issued a statement Tuesday, saying, “It’s hard for me to imagine what words, in what order would sufficiently express my love and gratitude to all of the people who have made the last seven years possible.
