| Patrick J. Adams stars as Mike Ross in Suits. |
Patrick J.Adams' character Mike Ross makes his long-awaited return to Pearson Specter tonight at 9 ET/PT on USA's
Suits, as the fourth season continues. Relationships have been tested, but as Adams notes about the series, "The show is about family to some degree. It's a modern American mythic corporate setting but that's what so many people relate to now is the companies they work for in some way are their family. We spend more time at work than we do at home these days. When we’re fighting for the firm we relate to it as a family. As a group of people that we are tied to and that we must defend. It’s about honor, it's about trust, it's about protecting the people that you love and having them protect you when you’re needed."
Serial Scoop recently caught up with Adams to discuss the secret of
Suits success, Mike's relationships with Rachel (Meghan Markle) and Harvey (Gabriel Macht), and lessons learned during his career. Read our exclusive interview below:
SERIAL SCOOP: Mike Ross is finally returning to Pearson Specter. How is this going to change some of his core relationships on the series?
PATRICK J. ADAMS: It's going to change each one differently. Obviously he is in a tough place with Rachel, and given that she wants to become a real legitimate lawyer, that's always going to weigh heavily on their shoulders. It's probably going to change Mike and Harvey's relationship for the better because every time they go through a hardship it seems to really bring them together. And I think his relationship with Jessica (Gina Torres) is something I'm particularly interested in now because while she trusts him and actually likes having him at the firm because he's a value and an asset, he's also a huge liability. I think we've seen him now leave and come back which says to her that he's not planning on going anywhere anytime soon and he is going to fight to keep his position there so it creates a lot of conflict between the two of them.
