Ludacris, born Christopher Bridges, will star as a family member of Detective Odafin “Fin” Tutuola, a role played by fellow rapper Ice-T. Tutuola finds himself in a difficult position when his colleagues suspect his son Ken (Ernest Wadell) in a double murder. “I have been a fan of Dick Wolf’s Law & Order for a long time,” Ludacris said in a statement. “When I was approached to work on SVU and read the script there was no way that I could turn down this amazing opportunity. The character was so rich and the storyline so complex that I knew it was something I had to do. I am looking forward to working with the incredibly talented cast and crew at Law & Order: SVU in my continuing quest to learn and grow as an actor.”
