August 24, 2004 - 11:49 AMDavid Anders, best known for playing Mr. Sark on ABC's Alias, has reportedly landed a role on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
Anders will appear in the recurring role of a "toxicology expert" in the fifth season of CSI, according to E! Online's television gossip columnist, Kristin Veitch. The actor is reportedly scheduled to film his first episode this week.
Veitch said there is currently no firm committment on how many CSI episodes Anders will appear in. "No number yet--they're seeing how things work out," she said. "But based on his original 'one episode' commitment on Alias in the first season, something tells me we'll be seeing plenty of David on CSI."
After guest-starring on the show in season one, Anders has been a regular on Alias for the past two years. For the show's fourth season, however, the actor has returned to a recurring role, allowing him to take on other work. Veitch said Anders will film episodes of both CSI and Alias this season, with the ABC spy drama requiring him for shooting throughout October.
Anders isn't the first spy drama refugee to cross over to CSI this season. Reiko Aylesworth, best known for playing Michelle Dessler on 24, will appear in the season premiere, "Viva Las Vegas", as DNA technician Chandra Moore, a possible lab replacement for Greg Sanders, who will be getting out into the field more this season.
