Mariska Hargitay who is known for her work in the TV series Law & Order: SVU is finding it difficult to continue the new season of the show. In July 2021, she broke her ankle and has been hobbling around the set shooting the new season. The accident made her realize that she can’t continue doing it forever. A source said,

“Her body hasn’t recovered as quickly as she hoped from her injury, and even though she’s on the mend. she’s aware it’s beginning to strain credulity to have a detective pushing 60 still chasing perps through the streets of New York.”
