Law And Order: SVU’s Kelli Giddish Discusses What She’s ‘Really Looking Forward To’ As She Returns As A Series Regular For Season 27

by

The forthcoming season of Law & Order: SVU, scheduled to air in 2025, promises excitement. Despite bidding farewell to two main cast members, Kelli Giddish will rejoin the series full-time as Sergeant Amanda Rollins following her departure during Season 24. Details about her return are scant, but Giddish has shared her anticipation for Season 27.

Despite departing as a main cast member in Season 24, Giddish has frequently reappeared on SVU since then. Rollins ascended to the rank of Sergeant within Manhattan’s Intelligence Unit, got married to Carisi, had a baby, and experienced numerous other life events. With ample material from her personal life now available for the show to explore again, there are many stories waiting to be told. Moreover, with SVU commencing Season 27 under the leadership of its first female showrunner, Giddish shared with Extra what she’s most eagerly anticipating about these new opportunities.

I’m eagerly anticipating the storylines that Michele [Fazekas] will create. Previously, she worked as a writer for SVU during its early seasons with low double-digit numbers. I can’t wait to see her unique contributions.

According to Giddish’s statement, Michele Fazekas previously served as a writer and producer on SVU, and she was behind one of Benson and Stabler’s most memorable episodes. Therefore, we can expect some engaging narratives this upcoming season.

Following 26 seasons, it’s clear that SVU could benefit from some new ideas. Although we can’t predict what Season 27 will bring, Giddish has hinted at the premiere episode, set to air on Thursday, September 25, and it seems like fans are in store for an exciting journey.

We’ve recently begun shooting, which means we’ve already held the first screening, an event filled with excitement. You might encounter some unexpected faces in it, adding an extra layer of intrigue. This should come as a delightful surprise for our audience!

Anticipation runs high for the upcoming season opener, as we’ve learned that Octavio Pisano, who was previously dropped from the cast, will reprise his role as Velasco. It seems his comeback might be limited to the first episode, serving to conclude his storyline. Fingers crossed there may be a chance for him to return in future episodes. However, only time will tell what actually unfolds in the premiere.

It turned out to be delightful news when it became known that Kelli Giddish is returning as a series regular on SVU. Many, including some of the cast, were disheartened by her departure, particularly because it was unexpected. However, when she started appearing occasionally, there was optimism that it would soon become permanent, and it’s fantastic to have her back again. There’s much to anticipate with her and the rest of the cast, and we can only speculate about what they have in store for us.

Looking forward to the return of “Law & Order: SVU” next month? More details about the premiere are expected soon, but trust us, it’ll be worth the wait! Catching up with Amanda Rollins in her full-time role will make it even sweeter. Mark your calendars for Season 27’s premiere on “Law & Order: SVU” on Thursday, September 25 at 9 p.m. ET on NBC, or stream it the next day with a Peacock subscription.
