Camryn Manheim has joined the cast of NBC’s “Law & Order” revival as Lt. Kate Dixon, the head of the NYPD’s homicide squad, the broadcast network said Friday.

She joins Anthony Anderson (reprising his role as Detective Kevin Bernard from the original series), Jeffrey Donovan and Hugh Dancy on what NBC is dubbing Season 21 of the iconic procedural.

Per NBC, the return of “Law & Order,” which ran for 20 seasons from 1990-2010, “will continue the classic bifurcated format that was created for its original run” and again examine “the police who investigate crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders.”
