Season 18 of "Law & Order: SVU" is starting to take shape.

The long-running drama has tapped E.T. star Henry Thomas and "The Practice", "Lie to Me" alum Kelli Williams to guest-star in an episode seemingly inspired by "Making a Murderer", The Hollywood Reporter has learned.



Thomas will portray a convicted rapist recently exonerated due to newly tested DNA evidence after 16 years in prison. But his freedom doesn’t last very long - Fin (Ice T), the arresting officer all those years ago, must investigate the man once again when he’s implicated in a deadly crime.

Williams will play Melanie, the rape victim who identified him as her attacker.



The episode will air sometime in the fall.
