Adam Beach is leaving
Law & Order: SVU at the end of this season, as he and the producers have mutually agreed not to extend his option for a second season on the NBC procedural. "I very much enjoyed my year on
Law & Order: SVU," Beach tells the
Reporter. "Now I'm looking forward to new adventures."
Says over
L&Ord Dick Wolf, who also worked with Beach on HBO's acclaimed
Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, "Adam is a superb actor. He did a terrific job this season on
SVU, and I look forward to working with him again in the near future."
Beach's news caps a wild week in which the departures of
Gary Dourdan (
CSI),
Diane Neal (
SVU) and
Khandi Alexander (
CSI: Miami) from their respective shows each have been disclosed, as scooped by Ausiello. -
