Mariska Hargitay is down but not out after hurting her ankle last week.
The “Law and Order: Special Victims Unit” star shared an update with her fans on social media on Monday, showing off her latest “summer look”: a cast and bandage around her right ankle to match her sandal.

According to Page Six, Hargitay fell during a screening of the new Marvel movie “Black Widow” on Friday in the Hamptons before being taken to nearby Southampton Hospital in an ambulance for a visit to the emergency room.
The photo shared by Hargitay was followed by a string of punny hashtags, with the actress joking that she was “captain crutch,” she was “cracking the case,” that it was a “summer bummer” and that she was “wrapped for the summer,” among others.
Her celebrity friends were quick to offer their well wishes, with Ali Wenthworth pointing out that her pedicure matches her cast and shearling Birkenstock sandal and Julianna Margulies saying “I am so sorry, this needs to stop!” Jamie Gray Hyder, her “Law and Order” co-star, teased Hargitay by asking how long she took to come up with the hashtags.
Early last month, Hargitay wrapped her 22nd season of the hit NBC crime drama, teasing on Instagram that she would work with her former co-star and lead in the “Law and Order” spin-off “Lawn and Order: Organized Crime” Christopher Meloni, who plays detective Elliot Stabler, the following season.
In June, “Organized Crime” executive producer Ilene Chaiken revealed in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that fans can expect more appearances from other characters in the “Law & Order” universe. But does that include Hargitay’s character, Olivia Benson?

“We will certainly do more crossovers. We're now part of an entire night of ‘Law & Order.’ It offers us a lot of opportunities to intersect our stories,” Chaiken shared, before noting that “there's no set number, no formula for it.”
In April, “Law & Order” fans were in for a treat after they were made privy to a moment they had been waiting literal decades for when Stabler told Benson he loves her in an “Organized Crime” crossover episode.

Stabler snapped at Benson after she expressed concern during a tense intervention scene with Stabler’s family, only to break down and say “I love you” to her. But whether or not it was a romantic admission was left unclear, as Stabler followed up by saying he loves “all of you” to Benson and his children.
