Stephanie March Is Returning to Law & Order: SVU for First Time in 8 Years
Stephanie March is ready to hear the “dun-dun” once more.
The Law & Order: Special Victims Unit star is set to return to the long-running series for episode nine of season 28, NBC confirmed to E! News. She last appeared on the crime show during season 19 in 2018.
March will reprise her role of Alexandra Cabot, an assistant district attorney assigned to the special victims unit, the character she debuted in season two of the show back in 2000 alongside Mariska Hargitay and Ice-T.
The 52-year-old departed the show in early season five after her character was seemingly murdered, although it was later revealed she was placed in a federal witness protection program. She reprised the role again in seasons six, 10, 11 and 13, and also starred on the Law & Order spin-off Conviction in 2006.
The Origin actress is the second Law & Order: SVU regular to return to the show for season 28, as Christopher Meloni is reprising his role as Elliot Stabler for the show’s 600th episode on Nov. 12.
