WARNING: CHICAGO JUSTICE SPOILERS AHEAD!
Chicago Justice premiered last week and there are already some big ties to Law & Order. Recently, showrunner Michael Chernuchin spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the future of the NBC series.
Part of Dick Wolf’s Chicago franchise, the legal drama centers on Peter Stone (Philip Winchester), the dogged Deputy Chief of the Special Prosecutions Bureau and the son of Law & Order character Ben Stone (Michael Moriarty). The cast also includes Carl Weathers, Monica Barbaro, Joelle Carter, and Jon Seda.
In the interview, Chernuchin says Law & Order star Sam Waterston could make an appearance on Chicago Justice:
We actually talked for a brief second about having Sam [Waterston] come in, but we thought it was too early. But maybe in the future.”
Later, he mentioned that characters from Law & Order: SVU could also be brought on for future seasons of the NBC series:
It would be hard because of the jurisdictional problem but I have a way to do it and it actually would be a way to kind of bring in SVU. It wouldn’t be this season; it would have to be next season.”
