Bradley Whitford is returning to his dramatic roots for a guest spot on "Law & Order: SVU", TVGuide.com has learned.
"The West Wing" alum, who currently stars on the ABC comedy "Trophy Wife", will play renowned television producer Frank Maddox, one-half of an estranged couple embroiled in a bitter divorce.
"Under the Dome" alum Samantha Mathis has been cast as Whitford's wife, actress Catherine Summers.
The episode is titled 'Reasonable Doubt' (airing on May 7) and sees Frank accused of molesting their eight-year-old daughter. However, Catherine refuses to cooperate in the investigation, which leads the squad to suspect the accusations were fabricated to curry public favor in the media.
Things get even more complicated when Catherine's younger sister Rose (Emma Bell) becomes engaged to Frank.
Ousted "Today" show co-anchor Ann Curry and Geraldo Rivera will also appear in the episodes as themselves.
