Law & Order: Criminal Intent is undergoing yet another casting change and this time is the role of the Captain

Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio has been cast as the veteran show’s new captain according to THR.com. She is replacing Eric Bogosian, another veteran that’s leaving, now that the show is moving forward with Jeff Goldblum and Saffron Burrows.

I have previously reported that Vincent D’Onofrio, Kathryn Erbe, and Bogosian will leave the show after a two hour season premiere early next year. I also reported that one of the three will die…..

I told you a few weeks ago that “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” was letting go of three main players: Vincent D’Onofrio, Kathryn Erbe, and Eric Bogosian. Now I can tell you this: one of their characters will die.

“CI” just finished filming an episode in which one of the three is murdered. That’s the exit show for the other two as well.

I am told by “CI” insiders that Erbe, especially, is very unhappy with the way things have worked out over there. “She was told everything was going fine, and then they were fired.”

Whoever was murdered isn’t too happy, either. But I’m not giving that part away.

The show is next turned over to Jeff Goldblum, who will soldier on without the original cast.
