Chicago Justice may have been cancelled, but its main characters are finding new life all over NBC.

After it was revealed that Jon Seda was heading back to Chicago P.D. this fall, Philip Winchester is the next Justice star on the move.

According to Deadline, Winchester is set to have a recurring role in Law & Order: SVU this fall, reprising his role as Peter Stone.

The character was an Assistant State's Attorney in Chicago during his time on Justice, but he will take on a different role when SVU comes around. Stone will be moving to New York, where SVU takes place, and he will serve as the ADA in New York City.

Winchester's role in SVU is set to cover multiple episodes, though he won't appear until midway through the show's upcoming 19th season.

Jon Seda was the first star of the cancelled series to move to another series. The actor was a series regular on Chicago P.D. before he left to help launch Chicago Justice. After the cancellation, he was sent back to become a series regular on P.D. once again.
