Chris Meloni Teases Possible Return to Law and Order: SVU

Christopher Meloni hints at a possible return to "Law & Order: SVU" by sharing recent photos on Instagram that feature him alongside Mariska Hargitay, his former co-star and on-screen partner, during a visit to the show's set. Meloni, who played Detective Elliot Stabler for 12 seasons before departing in 2011, posted images of himself and Hargitay in costume, along with a picture including former cast member Dann Florek, who played Captain Donald Cragen until 2015. Fans expressed excitement over these reunions, speculating about potential appearances in the upcoming 27th season. Meanwhile, Hargitay hinted that a romantic storyline between her character, Captain Olivia Benson, and Meloni's Stabler might be reserved for a special moment, possibly the season finale. The new season is set to premiere this September on NBC, and viewers are eager to see if the original cast members will make on-screen returns.
