Carmine Giovinazzo To Participate In Live CSI Files Chat

CSI: New York star Carmine Giovinazzo (Danny Messer) will be participating in a live chat with CSI Files visitors on Wednesday the 29th of June, at 10:00pm Eastern Time (7:00pm Pacific Time).

31-year-old Giovinazzo first became involved with the CSI franchise three years ago, when he played Thumpy G in the third-season premiere of the original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. Two years later he was cast as Danny Messer for the second CSI spin-off, CSI: New York, a role he first played in the Miami episode "MIA/NYC - NonStop," making him one of only a few actors who have appeared on all three CSI shows. Besides CSI, his acting credits include Black Hawk Down, Shasta McNasty, and the pilot of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Mr. Giovinazzo has graciously agreed to participate in CSI Files' first-ever live chat event. Next Wednesday, from 10:00pm onwards, he will be answering questions from CSI fans in our special chat room, which can be reached through both a web interface and an IRC client. For most of the time, the chat will be moderated, meaning that only messages typed by Giovinazzo himself and the CSI Files moderators will appear, but you will be able to ask questions by sending them to these moderators.

If you're unable to attend the chat, you can already send us questions in advance. In order to do so, head over to this thread in the CSI: New York forum of Talk CSI. We will make a selection from these questions and ask the best ones to Mr. Giovinazzo himself! So head over to our bulletin boards and post your questions -- you will need to have a Talk CSI user account, but if you haven't yet got one, now would be the perfect time to register! A full transcript of the questions and answers will be posted on CSI Files shortly after the chat.

While this will be the first CSI Files chat, it certainly won't be the last one! On the 11th of July, CSI: Miami star Jonathan Togo (Ryan Wolfe) has tentatively agreed to participate in another live discussion with CSI fans. Information on how to participate in that chat will be posted in early July.

Be sure to note down the time and join us next Wednesday at 10:00pm ET (7:00pm PT) to chat with Carmine Giovinazzo in our chat room. Meanwhile, you can still read the interview which the actor gave to CSI Files' Kristine Huntley in late October, 2004, or visit his official site at CarmineGiovinazzo.com.
