Are you ready to return to the world of CSI? Three actors have been cast in the CSI: Vegas sequel series project. If it gets the go-ahead from CBS, Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, and Mel Rodriguez will star in the new series which focuses on the CSI team in Las Vegas. William Petersen and Jorja Fox (above) are working on deals to also return to the franchise.
Though it was initially conceived as a one-time event series, CSI: Vegas could become an ongoing show. The possibility of a sequel series was first mentioned last February as a way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the franchise.
Deadline revealed the following about the plot of the CSI: Vegas revival series:
“Facing an existential threat that could bring down the Crime Lab, a brilliant team of forensic investigators must welcome back old friends and deploy new techniques to preserve and serve justice in Sin City.”

What do you think? Are you excited for the return of CSI on CBS? Would you watch the new CSI: Vegas?
FINALLY ITS ABOUT TIME TOO
Can’t wait to see a new installment of one of tv’s best all-time police procedurals! Happy to see so many of the original cast making a return.
I’d totally watch it for sure…
Would especially love to see Nick back! Loved DB’s character too.
Yes them back everybody.
Love this! I live in Vegas & would love to get a walk on part. Loved Marg, George, Gary, Eric & Wallace but will take any of the returnees you can get. We’ve got to get Covid under control so the entertainment industry can really get back on its feet. *My CSI tee just went to the rag pile last year! So now I can get an updated one.
