Wentworth Miller is hitting the beat, even if his character isn't happy about it.

Joining Law & Order: Special Victims Unit this season as Nate Kendal, Miller's portraying a cop who plays it close to the chest, an area of his body he may just get shot in if he keeps up that attitude.

As seen in this sneak peek above, the new kid doesn't get along with the vets, and it seems Kendal's dislike for Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Stabler (Christopher Meloni) is only matched by their disdain for him.

Law & Order: Special Victims Units returns to NBC Sept. 23 at 9 p.m.

Could there be just a touch of Michael Scofield's 'tude in there? Discuss in the comments.
