Petersen: There Will Be A Movie

CSI Files

Captain
Former leading man <font color=yellow>William Petersen</font> (Gil Grissom) has confirmed that a <I>CSI: Crime Scene Investigation</I> movie is in the works.<p>A film adaptation of the forensic drama has been the subject of rumours for a while, but there was no proof that a movie would be made until now. "Yes, there will be a movie," Petersen told the <A class="link" HREF="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/">Telegraph</a>. The actor left <I>CSI</I> earlier this season to return to the theatre, but he remains an executive producer for the series.<p>"I can understand people are a little trepidatious because of the franchise around the world and how well it's doing," the actor explained. "Usually people leave it until a series has finished - they did that with the <I>X-Files</I> and <I>Sex and the City</I>. But it's about finding the right story - there has got to be a real reason to do it."<p>"You don't just do it because you want to make money - you do it because there's a story that can't be told on TV and needs to be told from <I>CSI</I>'s perspective and the audience wants it," Petersen continued. He then added, "And we can't wait for <I>CSI</I> to end or Grissom will be about 90."<p>The original article is from the <A class="link" HREF="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/5189548/CSI-The-Movie-in-the-works-says-William-Petersen.html">Telegraph</a>.<center></center>
