In exciting news for FBI: International fans, actress Juliana Aidén Martinez has officially joined the cast for the upcoming third season. Known for her role as Detective Kate Silva on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Martinez’s addition is expected to bring a fresh dynamic to the already compelling team of elite agents. As a series regular, her character’s details are being kept under wraps, but fans can expect to see her join the International FBI team, which works to investigate crimes involving Americans abroad.

Martinez’s casting marks another milestone in her collaboration with Dick Wolf, the prolific producer behind both FBI: International and SVU. Her role in SVU as Detective Silva, a tough and determined officer with a background in Brooklyn’s homicide division, won her praise from fans and critics alike. Her tenure on SVU was short-lived, with both Martinez and co-star Octavio Pisano departing the show after season 26. However, her new role on FBI: International offers her a fresh opportunity to showcase her talents in a completely different environment.

For FBI: International viewers, Martinez’s character will partner with Special Agent Stuart Scola (played by John Boyd), who has been working without a permanent partner since the departure of Tiffany Wallace in Season 7. This pairing is sure to bring a new layer of tension, camaraderie, and crime-solving skills to the team, as the two agents navigate high-stakes international cases.

While Martinez’s character is still a mystery, her addition to the cast is being met with anticipation. Fans of FBI: International are eager to see how her character integrates into the existing team dynamic and how she will bring her unique skills to the table. Her presence in the show is expected to add depth and intrigue, especially with her experience in handling intense, high-pressure situations, as seen on SVU.

What makes this casting even more exciting is the potential for crossovers between the FBI shows. With SVU, FBI, and FBI: International all produced by Wolf Entertainment and Universal Television, there’s speculation that Martinez’s character could eventually cross paths with characters from the other series. Whether it’s a special case that involves both units or a dramatic twist that ties the shows together, fans are eager to see if this shared universe could lead to some exciting crossover moments in the future.

Season 3 of FBI: International is set to premiere on October 13, 2025, at 9/8c on CBS. Alongside Martinez’s highly anticipated debut, viewers can expect more thrilling international crime investigations, high-octane action, and emotional moments as the team works to protect Americans abroad. Martinez’s addition to the team is sure to add a fresh dynamic, and her character will undoubtedly become a fan favorite in no time.
