Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is bringing back Stephanie March for a guest appearance in Season 28, reprising her longtime role as assistant district attorney Alexandra Cabot. Multiple outlets report that the character is set to appear later in the season, indicating a planned return that will reconnect viewers with a familiar figure from the show’s earlier years.

Deadline and Variety add specific scheduling detail, saying March returns in the ninth episode of the season. Variety further notes the breadth of March’s original run, describing her as part of the main cast for a substantial period and for more than 100 episodes. TVLine and Hollywood Reporter focus more generally on her return, emphasizing that it will occur later in Season 28 without additional context about episode number or past tenure.

Across the coverage, the central agreed point is that March returns as Alexandra Cabot in Season 28; the main differences are how much background each outlet provides and whether the piece includes the episode number.
