Corey Cott on the SVU scene that made him "stop" in his tracks
Corey Cott, who plays Detective Jake Griffin on Season 27 of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, says he was blown away by the scale of the show’s action sequences as he settled into the 16th Precinct. He recalled one sequence from Season 27’s "Frequency," when the squad filmed in Grand Central Station in the middle of the night.
"[I'm] sprinting down these tracks, trying to catch the perp. Shooting in the main terminal of Grand Central Station, I mean that production value alone is like... who else gets to do that?" Cott said. "It was probably about 2:30 or 3 [in the morning], and Kevin Kane and I were just sprinting through the main terminal of Grand Central Station...
and going after a bad guy as he ducks into a train track." Cott remembered having to pause and take it in: "I had to stop and just go like, 'This is as cool as it gets.' This is just the mecca of TV.
