New Faces For CSI

Mac Taylor (Gary Sinise) takes a trip down memory lane.

In an upcoming episode of CSI: New York, Mac will be reunited with an old friend. According to Ask Ausiello, the two were best friends in their childhood, but Mac has not seen the man for thirty years. The producers are looking to cast a "name" actor to play the role.

It is also reported that CSI: Crime Scene Investigation will be introducing another new female character to the show. It has already been revealed that CSI will have a new forensic investigator named Veronica Lake (Jessica Lucas), but this other new character will not be a member of the CSI team. Instead, she is an ex-mob wife in her early forties. She and her son are in the witness protection program.

This character may be introduced in the episode that William Friedkin will be directing during November sweeps. The episode will reportedly have a mob-centric storyline. This woman might stick around and become a recurring character, and one possibility is that she could be a potential love interest for Gil Grissom (William Petersen) after his relationship with Sara Sidle (Jorja Fox) ends.

The original spoilers are from Ask Ausiello.
