LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Nona Gaye, daughter of soul singer Marvin Gaye, has joined NBC's "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" as a no-nonsense assistant district attorney.

She replaces Courtney B. Vance, who played ADA Ron Carver since the NBC series' launch in 2001. He is the first original cast member to depart the crime drama, which stars Vincent D'Onofrio, Chris Noth and Kathryn Erbe.

The show, which will enter its sixth season in the fall, marks the first foray into television for Gaye, whose feature credits include "Crash," "Ali" and "XXX: State of the Union."
