Lawrence Fishburn may be best known for his film roles, but he had a prestigious TV career. The actor has won six EMI awards after starting in the early 1970s and appeared in the famous well-known series, Playing cowboy cowboy in the "Pi-Pi-Pi" playy, Jackack Crawford at NBC's Hannibal and Earl Nsonson in ABC's "Black and Black". Although he did not win EMI for what was his biggest TV at the time, Fishburn also starred in the drama of CBS crime "CSI: Investigation of the crime scene" for several seasons, replacing the previous Starwar of the series William Petersen.

Petersen's Gil Grisom has been a leading series since the 2000 pilot CSI. But with the actor set to leave the show in December 2008, the creatives of the show pulled out a real blow by landing Fishburn as a replacement. The Oscar -nominated Starvers of such classics as "Apocalypse now" (which he landed thanks to the lie)"The Color Purple", "Boyz N The Hood" and "Matrix" had an impressive summary until it joined CSI, debuting in the 9th Down Episode as Dr. Raymond Langston. The former medical doctor worked with the Las Vegas crime lab to find a serial killer and his accomplice, leading Grisom to offer the team ahead of the season final.

Fishburn remained with a show for 60 episodes, which at the time were his biggest TV role. (Since then, he appeared in 89 episodes of "Black-ES.") The actor also showed Langston in episodes of two spin-offs "CSI", all of which had impressive things on their own, from "CSI: Miami" and his 10 seasons to "CSI: Nyyork". By the end of the 11th season of the 2011 series series, however, Fishburn decided to return to the big screen once again.

Created by Anthony E. Zuuker, "CSI" aired for 15 seasons, wrapped in 2015 after one of the most impressive consistent things in modern TV history. During that time, the show cyclized through several stars and recurrent members of the cast, with Lawrence Fishburn starring in a relatively small number of episodes in the great pattern of things.

Fishburn made his debut in the episode 9 of Season 9, and remained in the series two and a half seasons before his contract run after the final of the season 11, "In a Dark, Dark House", in May 2011. At that time, Fishburn seemed to suggest that he suggested to Fun weekly That he will return to season 12, saying, "I have a great time." He also talked about his commitment to Dr. Raymond Langston, saying he was "a connoisseur of the fact that (Gil) Grisom was a very hunting character" and revealing that he actually sat down and "watched (one) almost every episode of" CSS ". The show.

Then, it came as a surprise when it became clear that Fishburn would not return to season 12. The deadline He announced the news, confirming that the actor's contract was over and he decided not to be renewed for another season. The main reason seems to have wanted to focus more on the movies, which was much less surprising given his impressive big screen bonafides. At the time, the deadline states that he was expected to return to the "full -time" films, which were worn in the coming months when Fishburn was thrown as Perry White in Zack Snyder's superhero blockbuster "Steel Man" (which started the messy extended Universe of DC). At a time when his departure was announced, he was also scheduled to appear in Steven Soderberg thriller "Infection", which proved to be strange enough, was extremely conscientiously In terms of Kovid-19 pandemic of 2020.

Although it was surprising that Lawrence Fishburn did not return as Dr. Raymond Langston for Season 12 of CSI, given his commitment to his role, it was also not. According to Deadline, the show's producers were certainly not surprised that the actor chose not to renew his contract, with one insider saying the exit: "No one expected it to be on the show for seven years, it's Lawrence Fishburn." Moreover, at the end of the season 10 of the "CSI", Fishburn only renewed his contract for one season, so writing was already something on the Wallid.

However, there may have been more in the story. How Fun weekly Reported, the film star of the Pedigree Philosen did not translate exactly to the ratings ahead of William Peterson's departure, with the show ending its 11th season with 3.3 rating in adults aged 18 to 49 and ranked No. 30. After all, the fall of TVs is not the best look for an Oscar-nominated actor on his caliber.

However, Fishburn has certainly been in his ambitions to appear in several films. That same year Season 11 of CSI wrapped in "wrapped", for infection, with Fishburn appearing in three films in 2013 (included "Man of Steel"). Since then he played the king of Bowery in "Johnon Wick" films (containing "matrix" Easter egg) and, recently, Co-Gumi with Rami Malek in the solid, non-important amateur thriller.
