Meghan is currently excited for season six of “Suits”, which is set to premiere in India on July 16 on Comedy Central. The actress, who has featured in several TV series like “Fringe” and “CSI: Miami”, did not anticipate the show to become this successful and revealed that she had shot for a pilot episode with actor Patrick Adams, who is now her co-star on “Suits”. She added:
“I had previously done five different pilots for other networks that never saw the light of day, including one with Patrick (we played love interests in another pilot that didn’t get picked up) – so, you just never know,” she said.
“By the time ‘Suits’ came around, I was getting really disheartened with the entertainment industry and how hard it is to be auditioning all the time. I loved the Rachel character, and I wanted the show to get picked up, but you didn’t know if it would be…”
“Suits” chronicles the lives of talented college dropout Mike Ross (Patrick) who initially works as a law associate for Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) despite never actually attending law school.
On being quizzed about the much-awaited wedding between her character Rachel and Mike on the series, the actress said she is happy that it did not happen in season five finale but hinted that “it probably wouldn’t happen until season seven.” Meghan Markle stated:
“I’m kind of happy that the wedding didn’t happen at the end of Season 5. Our viewers have earned the right to see the kind of dream wedding you’d want Mike and Rachel to have. If/when it does happen, it probably wouldn’t happen until Season 7, but that’s just my personal guess… I don’t know for sure.”
