Stephen Macht will soon make it a family affair on Suits.

The veteran actor (The Practice, General Hospital, Castle) will guest star opposite his son on an upcoming episode of the USA Network hit.

According to TV Line, Macht will stop by Episode 2 of the show's winter run, portraying Professor Gerard, a stern Harvard Law professor with very high standards for his students.

“He plays an integral role in one of the through-line storylines in the back 6 [episodes],” executive producer Aaron Korsh tells the site. “He does not have a positive history with Harvey Specter. They have a conflictual scene.”

USA is yet to announce a return date for the back half of Suits Season 3.
