NBC and NBC Universal Television confirmed today (Wednesday) that a new multi-year deal has been reached with Wolf Films and Law & Order executive producer Dick Wolf.

"This is a hugely important deal that assures NBC and viewers of many more years of the most successful drama franchise on TV and offers the promise of a fourth new series," said NBC Universal TV Group president Jeff Zucker. "We're looking forward to continuing our long relationship with Dick Wolf and his entire team for many years to come."
