After a devastating personal loss, Stabler ‘rebuilds his life while leading an elite task force that aims to take apart New York’s most powerful crime syndicates one by one.’

Christopher originated the role in NBC’s Law & Order: SVU for 12 seasons before quitting in 2011 over a contract dispute.

On Tuesday, SVU producer-star Mariska Hargitay Instastoried a video from the set of Organized Crime, on which she guest stars as Stabler’s ex-partner Captain Olivia Benson.

‘There are a lot of unanswered questions about how he left, why the silence vis-à-vis Olivia Benson,’ Christopher dished on The Talk back in July.

‘I think, in real terms, society, and what we are dealing with in society, has changed dramatically. So, I think you have to address that. And, I think the person Elliot was, I think we all evolve. I think all those things are going to be put into play.’

The longest-running US prime-time drama in history, created by Dick Wolf, is now in its 22nd season airing Thursdays on NBC.
