Suits: L.A., the NBC relaunch of the hit legal drama, has sent a significant production update announcing Los Angeles filming is currently under way.

Production Location Change for Suits: L.A.
Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams starred in the first Suits season, which was set in New York metropolis with the fictional law firm, Pearson Specter Litt right in the middle of the metropolis. But the series was really shot in Toronto, Ontario, across its nine seasons since the outrageous cost of filming in New York City was prohibitive. Common for many projects, this choice is mostly motivated by the availability of tax incentives and less expensive labour costs in Canada.
L.A. Reflects Its Setting.
Suits: L.A., on the other hand, films on location in Los Angeles, therefore bucking this pattern. This will enable the production to make better use of outside views of well-known L.A. sites, therefore providing a degree of authenticity not achievable for the first series set in New York City.
Appropriate Los Angeles Setting: L.A.
Fans may anticipate additional series promotional materials and news in the next months while filming is under way. The shift in production site and the inclusion of a Los Angeles backdrop could help the show be successful by offering a fresh viewpoint on the courtroom drama genre and maybe drawing a new audience.
