Will Marg Helgenberger Leave ‘CSI’?
Marg Helgenberger, the actress who plays forensic scientist Catherine Willows on ‘CSI‘, told TV Squad today that her contract on the show is up after 10 years and that she hasn’t yet been asked back for next season.
“My contract is up actually,” Helgenberger said, when asked if she would be returning for ‘CSI’s’ 11th season. “That’s a good question. I haven’t been asked back, so we’ll see.”
Helgenberger’s character was recently promoted to supervisor after the departure of her long-time partner, Gil Grissom (William Peterson). She has been with the show since it’s debut in 2000.
There have been a few notable cast departures recently on ‘CSI’ — among them, Peterson, who left last season to pursue more stage roles, and Jorja Fox, who left the show only to return in a recurring capacity this season. Helgenberger faces frequent rumors that she is leaving the show, though last year’s contract renewal wasn’t announced until mid-May.
