### Patrick J. Adams Revels in Abundant Opportunities Amidst Suits Resurgence
Patrick J. Adams is embracing the revival of Suits and the multitude of new opportunities that have come his way as a result. This week, Adams guest-stars on Fox's crime anthology series, Accused, which airs on Tuesdays at 9/8c. The episode features Nick Cannon, known for hosting The Masked Singer, as a tech entrepreneur whose facial recognition software leads to unforeseen and devastating consequences. The episode also stars Jerrika Hinton of Grey's Anatomy fame.
In what has already been a busy year, Adams participated in a memorable Super Bowl commercial linked to Suits, collaborated on a Suits rewatch podcast with former co-star Sarah Rafferty, and filmed a six-episode series for Netflix focusing on the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 titled Lockerbie. Additionally, he has just commenced work on The Madison, the latest spin-off of the popular Yellowstone series.
Reflecting on his packed schedule, Adams expressed surprise at how busy he has been but also shared his gratitude for the new roles and experiences. While acknowledging his skills and reputation, he hopes that the renewed popularity of Suits has played a role in enhancing his career visibility.
Discussing his role in Accused, Adams plays Peter, a cofounder of the facial recognition software central to the episode’s plot. While Peter is recognized as the brains behind the technology, his relationship with Marcus (Cannon), who possesses strong business acumen, becomes strained when ethical concerns about their software come to light. Adams finds portraying this morally ambiguous character a refreshing change from the more wholesome roles he usually receives.
Adams reveals that he had initially been reluctant to take on the role due to being on vacation after completing Lockerbie. However, the compelling script and opportunity to work with a talented team persuaded him to dive in. He relished the experience, likening it to his early career days of doing guest roles, which required him to quickly adapt and perform with new teams.
The episode titled "Marcus' Story" promises to provoke thought and discussion. Adams suggests that it raises important questions about friendship, trust, and the boundaries we set with those we care about. It challenges viewers to reflect on the dynamics of their relationships, much as his character's tumultuous partnership with Marcus does.
