Laurence Fishburne considers Joining CSI

August 6, 2008
Film vet Laurence Fishburne is close to signing a deal to join CBS' CSI, Fishburne would fill the considerable void being left when series front man William Petersen steps down after this season's 10th episode.

Fishburne will play a doctor/scientist who comes into the CSI as an outsider, and not as the team's new boss, CBS Entertainment president Nina Tassler revealed at the TCA press tour. As a DNA expert, this new character has identified a common profile among serial killers - and it's even in his own genes.

Petersen - who will continue on as an executive producer as well as put in the occasional "special" appearance - is the third original cast member to leave the show, following Jorja Fox and Gary Dourdan (each of whom will briefly resurface this season!

Andrea I am so sorry I didn't know you had posted story. That'll teach me to check first and again Im so sorry. But it is a great story. I can't see Kurt Russell replacing William Petersen.
