Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio (Scarface, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves) is set to recur in the Peacock series Law & Order: Organized Crime for Season 5 as Isabella Spezzano, a figure from Stabler’s (Meloni) past.
Law & Order: Organized Crime follows the detectives of the Organized Crime Control Bureau as they take on New York City’s most vicious and violent criminal syndicates. In addition to Meloni, Danielle Moné Truitt and Ainsley Seiger also star.
The show was renewed for a fifth season in April following the announcement the procedural would move from NBC to its streamer Peacock. The move gives Peacock an original Dick Wolf drama series to go with the Wolf Entertainment library and next-day runs of the company’s remaining NBC series Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D., Chicago Med, Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU, which are among the platform’s most viewed titles.
This is the second series in the Law & Order franchise to transition to another platform after starting on NBC. L&O: Criminal Intent ran on USA Network for four additional seasons after the initial six on NBC.
Dick Wolf, John Shiban, Mike Slovis, Christopher Meloni and Peter Jankowski executive produce Law & Order: Organized Crime. Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, produces in association with Wolf Entertainment.
Mastrantonio is an Academy Award-nominated actress best known for her film roles in Scarface, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, The Abyss, The Perfect Storm, Class Action, Limbo and The Color of Money. Her appearances on stage include The Winslow Boy, The Marriage of Figaro, Amadeus, West Side Story, Northeast Local, Twelfth Night, Measure for Measure, Henry V, The Human Comedy, Grand Hotel, A View From the Bridge and Man of La Mancha for which she received a Tony Award nomination.
She is repped by Innovative Artists and Industry Entertainment.
