Lauren Cohan is going fromThe Walking Dead to Law & Order: SVU.
During the episode, set for late March, Cohan will play Avery Jordan, a popular sports reporter who accuses her cameraman of raping her. When she learns she's pregnant from the encounter, she opts to keep the baby. The role of the cameraman has yet to be cast.The actress has been tapped to guest-star in the long-running NBC procedural's "Legitimate Rape" episode, The Hollywood Reporter has learned exclusively.
The episode will focus on the "legitimate rape" controversy that erupted during the 2012 election when Senate nominee Todd Akin, R-Miss., said that pregnancy rarely occurs as the result of what he called "legitimate rape." (Akin later issued an apologyfor his remarks.)
For Cohan, the casting comes after her Walking Deadcharacter Maggie was sexually abused during an episode of the zombie drama earlier this season.
In addition to Walking Dead, Cohan's credits includeThe Vampire Diaries, Chuck and Supernatural. She's repped by APA and Liberman-Zerman.
I'm so happy omg!! Congrats Lauren !!!! Can't wait to see this role come true!
Also I love the way they said "she's repped by APA and Liberman-Zerman <3 Don't know why, I just loved it.
