As 2024 draws to a close, fans are already buzzing about what Hargitay has planned for the new year. In recent words to E! News, the actress teased fans that she has something coming up on the horizon. 

"I'm a very active person with a lot of irons in the fire," Hargitay said. "I will have a big, big announcement in January, and I am someone who follows the signs, and I trust that the future will be right and that I will be where I'm supposed to be."

The 60-year-old has been a pillar of SVU for over 25 years, and during the wrap party for Season 25, Hargitay spoke with NBC Insider about how grateful she feels to be at the center of a mythic series like SVU.

"I love my job," she said. "I love going to work every day. I love the community that I'm in. I love my cast, my crew, and I love the intimacy of it all and the fact that we work in a culture that says, 'Let's do the work, let's have a fun time, and the best idea wins.' It is such a team. It is such an incredible team, and we rely so much on each other. We're a unit. It's so sacred to me."
