Fishburne replaces William Petersen, who will leave his role as Gil Grissom next season. Fishburne will play a college lecturer who focuses on what motivates criminals to do what they do.

He says, "I am elated and delighted to be joining the cast of CSI. I look forward to a wonderful collaboration with the creative and talented team of such a successful and distinguished show."
