By Nellie Andreeva
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Hot off her recurring role on CBS' "CSI: Miami," Alana De La Garza is joining another crime drama, NBC's "Law & Order," as a regular, and Ivan Sergei has been tapped as the lead in Fox's drama pilot "Drive."
On "Law & Order," De La Garza will play a new assistant district attorney who will replace A.D.A. Alexandra Borgia, killed off in the series' 16th-season finale last month. Annie Parisse played Borgia for the past season and a half.
Representatives for NBC and series creator/executive producer Dick Wolf declined comment Thursday.
De La Garza most recently played Eric Delko's (Adam Rodriguez) sister Marisol on "CSI: Miami." Her credits also include the series "The Book of Daniel" and "The Mountain" and the feature "Mr. Fix It."
"Drive," from 20th Century Fox TV, chronicles an underground race across America. Sergei leads an ensemble cast that includes Kristin Lehman, Melanie Lynskey and Alan Ruck. 20th TV-based director Greg Yaitanes is directing.
Sergei, on the big screen in "The Break-Up," next stars in the ABC television movie "Mary Christmas." His series credits include "Crossing Jordan," "Hawaii" and "Charmed."
