The freshest addition to the Law & Order: SVU cast is Detective Jose “Joe” Velasco, played by Pisano. Joe joins SVU as a detective after Katriona Tamin (Jamie Gray Hyder) retires at the end of season 22. He is a great addition to the troupe and now a prominent member of the CSR family. A new detective is just one of the changes coming to CSR when the fall TV season kicks off in September, as former showrunner Warren Leight has been replaced by Coyote co-creator David Graziano in that role. It remains to be seen if the change behind the scenes of the showrunner will be noticeable in regards to what happens on screen, aside from the addition of a new cop. Octavio Pisano is just as mysterious as Detective Joe Velasco. He joined him on Twitter, but only in January. Since then, he`s tweeted mostly about Coyote, a crime series he starred in with Michael Chiklis that premiered in January 2021. The launch of his Twitter account coincides with the start of the show.
He now tweets mainly about CSR. From 2014 to 2017, he starred in Tyler Perry`s If Loving You Is Wrong. In addition, it seems that he mainly played short films or guest roles. Add Law & Order`s Camryn Manheim, who plays multiple characters in the same show`s story, and FBI: Most Wanted, which brings in a former Chicago Fire actor to replace Miguel Gomez in Season 4, and Molly Burnett is just the latest to jump from one wolf show to the next. She has also appeared in a number of other series, including Queen of the South from 2017 to 2021, General Hospital from 2016 to 2018, and Relationship Status from 2016 to 2017, to name a few outside the Wolf Entertainment universe. The show turned its actors into big stars, but what do you know about their off-camera lives? Here`s everything you need to know about their past and current relationships. Law & Order: Special Victims Unit has said hello and goodbye to many detectives over the course of its many seasons, but in the September 29 episode, “The One You Feed,” we meet SVU`s newest recruit: Detective Grace Muncy (Molly Burnett). Weeks continue to count until Law & Order: SVU returns after the return of the Season 23 finale that left Benson with a big decision, and new casting news shows that the special victims squad room will be different in Season 24.
The long-running drama has added a new recurring detective, and fans of some of Dick Wolf`s other nine-part TV series can recognize the actress in roles in Chicago P.D. and FBI: Most Wanted in early 2022. Pisano starred alongside Michael Chiklis on the CBS series All Access Limited Coyote. He was cast in the pilot of the New York reboot Undercover by Dick Wolf and Tyler Perry`s If Loving You Is Wrong. Pisano`s films include Ms Purple, directed by Justin Chon (Blue Bayou), Badsville, Powder & Gold and Smartass. Pisano is represented by CAA, manager Carissa Stewart at GSA Entertainment and Jackoway Austen Tyerman. Law & Order: SVU cast Molly Burnett to play Detective Grace Muncy in season 24, according to TVLine, and the highly capable character is said to have experience working with gangs. SVU, of course, shares the same television universe as the three One Chicago shows, the three FBI shows, and the other two L&O shows. Scanavino first appeared in Season 16 after Benson hired an “experienced and empathetic detective” for SVU. Sonny`s unwavering personality led him to become an assistant prosecutor and served the fans of “order” in Law & Order. Pisanos Joe Velasco is a former undercover detective under the direction of Chief McGrath (Terry Serpico), who has been assigned to SVU.
Pisano has appeared in 3 episodes so far, starting with the season 23 premiere. Make room in the pen: There`s a new Law & Order: CSR detective for the case. Starring Mariska Hargitay, Law & Order: SVU chronicles the life of the New York City Police Department`s Special Victims Unit, an elite group of detectives investigating crimes such as sexual assault, child abuse, and domestic violence. Narrator: In the country`s largest city, vicious and violent members of the underworld are hunted by detectives from the Bureau of Organized Crime Control. These are their stories. Pisano`s promotion follows the recent departures of two major cast members — Jamie Gray Hyder, who played Officer Kat Tamin, and Demore Barnes, who played assistant chef Christian Garland. Octavio Pisano recently joined the cast of the NBC drama as undercover investigator Joe Velasco. Not much is known about the 36-year-old actor`s life away from the cameras, as he likes to keep his private life. Detective Joe Velasco is exceptional.
#SVU #SVU23Premiere @lawandordertv Dick Wolf`s Law & Order franchise spawned many spin-offs, but Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is a fan favorite. This is largely due to the show`s talented cast. So what does Molly Burnett`s arrival in CSR mean for season 24? Well, fans don`t have to panic that a new detective coming into Special Victims automatically means someone else is about to leave, like Jamie Gray Hyder`s Kat, who is going to the beginning of season 23. A new detective could simply mean that investigators working under Benson would have the numbers to split into partners. For most of last season, only Fin, Rollins and newcomer Det. Velasco had their boots regularly on the field. Pisano joined NBC`s procedural drama in the premiere of its 23rd season and has appeared in three episodes so far. His character, Velasco, is a former undercover detective under Chief McGrath (Terry Serpico), who has been assigned to SVU and replaces Officer Katriona Tamin (Jamie Gray Hyder). Hyder recently left the show alongside Demore Barnes, who played deputy chef Christian Garland. Fans are still mourning the loss of Detective Katriona “Kat” Tamin, who left SVU during the season 23 premiere after a very brief stint on the show.
Fortunately, Detective Joe Velasco (played by Octavio Pisano) was waiting backstage to take over as the new detective. And even though we`ve spent some time with him, we`re still getting to know him. It`s the characters from Law & Order: CSR who keep fans glued to their screens week after week. Currently, the cast is a mix of experienced and new characters – and they all work together to form a memorable ensemble. Below, we break down the key characters currently present in Law & Order: CSR. Molly Burnett (Days and Lives, Queen of the South) has been cast as Detective Grace Muncy ahead of the upcoming season 24 of the NBC trial, TVLine has learned. Meanwhile, Velasco, who has one hell of an idea for a show, is tasked with protecting Jenna (Isabelle Poloner), the other member of the grand jury, from danger. In a conversation with Jenna, in an attempt to gain her trust after learning that her father is abusive, Velasco says, “Do you see this belt? My father always whipped me with it. Unfortunately, we learn from Jenna`s mother that Garrett impregnated Jenna when she was only 15 years old. Not only that, but Jenna`s mother kept evidence in the form of one of Jenna`s clothes. It`s very intense.

At this point, the CSR team must prepare for the grand jury in the Garrett Howard (Derek Cecil) case. Detective Velasco will have to testify. Sadly, almost all of the remaining grand jury members have disappeared or died. It looks like Garrett could get away with it. Now we`ve caught up with how Kat gets shot when she protected Rosa (Angelic Zambrana), one of the grand jury members. Ice T, Peter Scanavino and Kelli Giddish are also featured. Season 23 premiered on September 23, immediately following the finale of the final season, in which Catalina Machado (Zabryna Guevara) was arrested for trafficking homeless women in a shaded dormitory for sexual purposes. The first was also the last episode for the aforementioned Hyder and Barnes.
The woman, the legend, the backbone of CSR: Mariska Hargitay. Hargitay has been the central figure in CSR since its foundation in 1999. In 2006, she received an Emmy Award for Outstanding Performance by an Actress in a Drama Series for her work on the series. NBC plans to launch new seasons of all of its Law & Order series with a three-way crossover on Thursday, September 22. The event would be the first of its kind exclusively among Law & Order shows, although SVU had a triple crossover with Chicago P.D. and Chicago Fire. But before we put the big night on your calendar, we hear that scheduling issues could push the Law & Order crossover 3x further into the fall. Demore Barnes recently resigned as Deputy Chief Christian Garland. The Canadian-born actor is believed to be married, though the identity of his wife remains a mystery to fans of the show, as he has never publicly shared details about his private life.
Benson and Rollins must deal with the FBI and the Bureau of Organized Crime when a rape victim (Herizen Guardiola) identifies a dangerous gangster (Rhys Coiro) as their attacker. Unfortunately, the Special Victim Support Unit realizes that the perpetrator is much more connected than he initially thought, which further complicates matters for the victim. The FBI and the Bureau of Organized Crime want to eliminate the head of a criminal family with the help of the perpetrator. When they track down the attacker, Stabler shoots him, taking him to the hospital. When Carisi visits the Perp, the American marshals take him away.
