Vincent D’Onofriowas asked the million-dollar question at Nashville’s ICCCon: would he ever return toLaw & Order: Criminal Intentas the iconic Detective Robert Goren? The fan-favorite actor, who portrayed Goren for ten seasons,teased the possibility of his returnbut made it clear it wasn’t his call alone. It was up to franchise creator and executive producer Dick Wolf. The 65-year-old asserted,
That’s a question for Dick Wolf. But come on, what am I, an idiot? It’s a great part… Look, Dick, seven, eight, nine episodes would be great.

D’Onofrio even took to X, reaching out toLaw & Order: SVUshowrunner Warren Leight. While he acknowledged the challenges with studio logistics, he hinted that if creator Dick Wolf is on board, aCriminal Intentrevival could be in the cards. It seems like the idea is far from dead—if Wolf gives the green light. He tweeted,
People are definitely into this. When we all finally sort all these important issues with the studios maybe it’s time to think about this seriously. If the boss @WolfEnt is into it of course. Could be fun.

Despite the show wrapping in 2011, D’Onofrio’s iconic performance still resonates with fans. Could aCriminal Intentrevival be the next big move for Wolf’s ever-expandingLaw & Orderuniverse? We’ll see.

But when it came toHawkeyeandEcho, he switched things up—forget the bulk, he rocked a high-tech muscle suit that made him look jacked without the extra weight. He mentioned,
I wore a suit in Echo, which was also fantastic. Now I’m just able to do my regular routine and wear these suits that are amazing. In the new series I’m wearing the suit, and it’s incredible. We play with makeup a little bit too to make my face look rounder. I’ve seen a few of the episodes now of the new season, and it works really well. I think you’ll be happy.
