Fishburne extends 'CSI' gig (THR)
By Wiretap Staff
Laurence Fishburne will extend his run on "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" with a commitment through the 2010-11 season. Fishburne two seasons ago replaced outgoing star William Petersen and is gearing up for a season 10 finale that will result in a life-and-death cliffhanger, says The Hollywood Reporter.
With Fishburne front and center, the series has continued to be a solid performer for CBS on Thursday nights.
During the summer, Fishburne will appear in Robert Rodriguez's "Predators" and next year will appear in Steven Soderbergh's "Contagion."
