If you watch Law & Order: Organized Crime online, you know Preston has been a major player on Law & Order Organized Crime Season 2.

Whether his wife will be just as cunning, we don’t know, but we’re excited to see how it all plays out.

The casting news comes just days after it was announced Dylan McDermott would be wrapping up his two-season stint as Richard Wheatley.

McDermott will remain in the Dick Wolfe orbit, having snagged the lead role on FBI: Most Wanted after the news of Julian McMahon’s exit.

In keeping with tradition, Beals previously appeared on Law & Order back in 2007.

This latest stint marks a new role, and we can’t wait to see how it will play out.

Law & Order: Organized Crime has a different approach to storytelling than its predecessor, telling stories over a longer arc.

Beals currently stars on The Book of Boba Fett on Disney+, as well as Showtime’s The L Word Generation Q.

Stabler joins the Organized Crime Task Force, led by Sergeant Ayanna Bell.
