Her CBS show might’ve been cancelled, but Jennifer Love Hewitt’s career shows no sign of slowing down. The former ‘Ghost Whisperer’ star has one highly rated Lifetime movie, ‘The Client List,’ under her belt, and now TV Guide is reporting that she’ll guest on the Sept. 29 episode of ‘Law & Order: SVU.’

Executive producer Neal Baer told the magazine that J. Love will be playing a rape victim who is so scarred by her attacks that she is afraid to leave her house.

“One of the reasons we wanted to do this episode is because it addresses Mariska Hargitay’s passion for rape kits, which can help gather evidence to convict the rapists,” Baer said. “But for some reason these kits have been sitting around unopened in cities all over the country.”

‘Law & Order: Los Angeles’ premieres the same night, and ‘SVU’ star Hargitay will film several scenes for the episode in L.A. However, Baer would not confirm to TV Guide whether or not there will be any crossover into the new show.
