Law and Order SVU season 27 cast guide opens with NBC confirmed squad — Hargitay, Ice-T, Scanavino, Giddish, Kane, Kelly, Cott, and Pisano per Peacock and NBC Insider ahead of the September 2025 premiere.

Hargitay anchors the twenty-seventh season as Captain Olivia Benson. NBC marketing and opening credits positioned Benson first in any Law and Order SVU season 27 cast guide roster across the full broadcast year.

Ice-T returns as Fin Tutuola alongside Scanavino as Carisi and Kane as Bruno. NBC billing lists each as series regular — co-leads in the Law and Order SVU season 27 cast guide alongside Benson.

Corey Cott as Jake Griffin earned series-regular promotion from episode nine. NBC Insider confirmed his opening-credits inclusion — the highest-profile newcomer in this cast guide.

Giddish returned full-time as Rollins while Scanavino as Carisi bridged precinct and DA strategy. Peacock called the Rollins return seamless — key threads in the SVU season 27 cast guide.
