Stephen Amell Cast in NBC Drama Pilot “Suits L.A.”

Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor from New York, has reinvented himself representing the most powerful clients in Los Angeles. His firm is at a crisis point, and in order to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career. Ted is surrounded by a stellar group of characters who test their loyalties to both Ted and each other while they can’t help but mix their personal and professional lives. All of this is going on while events from years ago slowly unravel that led Ted to leave behind everything and everyone he loved.

Stephen Amell most recently starred in the Starz critically acclaimed series “Heels” and will next be seen starring in the Netflix film “Code: 8 Part II,” which he also produced. He previously starred on the CW breakout hit “Arrow,” which launched what is now known as the Arrowverse.
