'Suits' season 7 return date and plot synopsis

The next part of “Suits” season 7 will premiere on March 28. This will be the last time fans get to see Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) and Rachel Zane (Meghan Markle). The show will also set up the spin-off series with Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres) as the lead character.

The TV series has been renewed for season 8, Deadline reports. However, Mike and Rachel, the two major characters that have been part of the show since the very beginning, will not be coming back after this season.

Mike and Rachel are set to get married by the end of season 7. The finale, said to run for two hours, will not only feature the wedding but also set up the spin-off series.

Talking about his exit from the show, Adams said his character has taught him about “commitment, hard work and the power of believing in yourself.” The actor also thanked all the fans and his colleagues.

The report notes that even though Mike has exited the show, it doesn’t mean viewers will never get to see him again. Gina was supposed to be gone, too, but the character made a surprise appearance at a crucial moment on the show. Mike may also be back sometime later, but his return may only be restricted to that of a cameo.

The plot of next season will focus on Harvey (Gabriel Macht) having to deal with Jessica losing her license. On the personal front, he will have to figure out what the kiss with Donna (Sarah Rafferty) means for his relationship with Paula (Christina Cole). Mike, on the other hand, will have to balance his work at the firm, his pro bono cases, and his imminent marriage with Rachael. Finally, Louis (Rick Hoffman) will struggle with the “right and wrong” as his relationship with Sheila (Rachael Harris) deepens.
