Is there a trailer for Law & Order: SVU Season 27?
Yes, there is. NBC released a trailer touting the return of Law & Order Thursdays, promoting the new seasons of Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU, along with the network premiere of the most recent season of Peacock Original Law & Order: Organized Crime.
In the trailer, Benson and Stabler have a brief interaction where the former partners reminisce about the past and look ahead to a possible future. “We had a pretty good run,” Stabler says. “We still have more to do,” Benson responds with a smile.
The new season also welcomes back Giddish as a series regular, and it’s as if no time has passed for her character, Sgt. Rollins, who’s fiercer than ever as she reports for duty alongside her 27th Precinct colleagues.
But Benson always has the last word. “We’re going to get a lot done,” Benson promises. Watch the Law & Order franchise trailer here.
