Olivia Benson is crossing over to Law and Order with a fierce lawyer in tow!

As a die-hard fan who’s been riding this Law & Order: SVU rollercoaster for what feels like forever, I couldn’t be more thrilled about the upcoming seasons and crossovers! The prospect of Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler sharing the screen again after all these years has my heart racing faster than Finotello on a high-speed chase!


Olivia Benson has a busy time ahead! Although the exact premiere date for season 5 of “Law & Order: Organized Crime” on Peacock hasn’t been announced yet, the excitement is building among fans as Mariska Hargitay has confirmed she will appear in episode 2 – an episode that Christopher Meloni is writing himself! This means we can look forward to the long-awaited reunion of Stabler and Benson.

According to TVLine, Mariska Hargitay is slated to make a guest appearance on “Law & Order” in October. Specifics about the episode she’ll be featured in are yet to be disclosed. However, it’s been scheduled that both the original series and “Law & Order: SVU” will debut their new seasons on Thursday, Oct. 3, suggesting that her appearance will be within the first five episodes of the new season.

Actress Elizabeth Marvel will be teaming up with Hargitay once more. She’s returning to portray Defense Attorney Rita Calhoun, a role she last played in the season 22 episode 6 of Law and Order: SVU, titled “The Long Arm of the Witness”. In this particular case, Detective Carisi found himself butting heads with a formidable judge following an unexpected dismissal of a rape case involving a university student.

In popular opinion, Calhoun is seen as a character with morally ambiguous traits. Unlike other defense attorneys who take up this profession to help those wrongly accused or disadvantaged by the system, Calhoun seems to have a different motivation. She’s talented and driven, understanding that some of her clients are far from admirable individuals. Yet, she never lets this fact deter her from giving her best as their legal representative.

In the heat of my passion for justice, I stand firm, even when my clients are accused of heinous crimes. This unwavering dedication to due process has earned me respect, yet it’s also stirred up tension within SVU. Yet, regardless of the nature of their accusations, I’ve defended them all with the same meticulous attention and fierce determination that characterizes my work across the board.

In an upcoming “Law & Order” episode, Benson and Calhoun will team up, promising a captivating hour of television. These two talented actresses, Hargitay and Marvel, have the power to command your attention whenever they’re on screen. As for whether this episode might extend into “Law & Order: SVU”, that detail remains unclear for now. We’ll be sure to update you as more news becomes available.

There hasn’t been much revealed about SVU ‘s upcoming season 24, but fans can look forward to Detective Terry Bruno getting more screen time since Kevin Kane has been upgraded to a series regular. He joined the cast last season as part of the Bronx unit before moving over to the Manhattan team. Additionally, Juliana Aidén Martinez will be returning for the season as a series regular, although the character she’ll play on the detective force remains unnamed at this time.
