Christopher Meloni's Elliot Stabler Will Return To 'SVU' in Season 22 Premiere

Elliot Stabler will be popping up on the season opener of Law & Order: SVU.

Showrunner Warren Leight shared on the behind-the-scenes podcast for the long-running series that Christopher Meloni would be part of the premiere episode.

“It’s pretty clear that Elliot will be in the SVU season opener. I think that much I know,” he shared while talking about the future of the series.

Warren added that at this time it would just be Elliot: “Whether we’ll get to see his family as well remains to be seen.”

It’s unknown when filming for season 22 would take place given the shutdown because of coronavirus concerns.

It was announced in March that Chris would be returning to the network in an Elliot Stabler spinoff. Get all the details here!
