Mariska has played NYPD Captain Olivia Benson for 25 seasons of Law & Order: SVU
Her look was a far cry from her suited and booted appearance on Law & Order: SVU as NYPD Captain, Olivia Benson.
She’s played the role for over two decades and opened up about her “loyal and protective” fanbase in the interview with the outlet.
Mariska said: “I feel like I have different kinds of fans because of the subject matter [of the show]. They’re so loyal and protective, it feels personal.”
She has a lot to celebrate this year with 25 seasons of SVU, 20 years of marriage to actor Peter Hermann and she just turned 60.
But age is just a number for Mariska who says her milestone is “the new 25,” adding: “I really feel like I’m just getting started.”
Mariska had planned to turn her hand to comedy after 13 episodes on ER, but when she was sent a pilot called Sex Crimes, it all changed.
“My manager goes, ‘Dick Wolf has a new show. It’s a spinoff, but I don’t know if it’s going to be up your alley — it’s very dark,'” she recalled. “I read it and I just remember going, ‘This is my show.'”

Mariska and Christopher Meloni’s chemistry at their read together was so powerful, the outcome was clear from the start.
