UPI News Service, 07/22/2010
Actress Paula Patton has signed on for a multi-episode stint on the U.S. drama series "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," NBC said.
Patton is to play a charming and savvy Assistant District Attorney who works with the Special Victims Unit on the Wolf Films/Universal Media Studios series. Season 12 of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" is to premiere Sept. 22. "When I saw Paula Patton give that terrific performance in the multi-Oscar nominated 'Precious,' I knew she'd be perfect for 'SVU's' new assistant district attorney -- she's funny, warm and witty with a penchant for justice. And it happened. She's starting in Episode 5. How cool is that?" executive producer Neal Baer said in a statement. Patton is currently shooting the movie "Jumping the Broom." Her other credits include the feature films "Just Wright,""Deja Vu" and "Swing Vote." |
