August 8, 2017
"Chicago Justice" star Philip Winchester is returning to the Dick Wolf NBC universe with a co-starring role on veteran "Law & Order: SVU".
Winchester will reprise his character from "Chicago Justice", Peter Stone, who was Assistant State’s Attorney in Chicago and will now be ADA in New York City where SVU is set. Winchester will first appear around the midpoint of "SVU‘s" upcoming 19th season.
Stone is from New York, and his father is Benjamin Stone, an ADA on the first four seasons of the mothership "Law & Order" series, played by Michael Moriarty. This would make for an organic integration of the character into "SVU".
The move also underscores the fluidity of the Wolf series, which a built like a universe, with characters making seamless transitions from one show to another.
