"Community‘s" Charley Koontz has landed his first series regular gig, a co-starring role opposite Patricia Arquette in CBS’ upcoming "CSI" spinoff, "CSI: Cyber". The rest of the series’ cast is currently being assembled, with Koontz as the first actor locked in.

Koontz plays Agent Daniel Grummitz with the Cyber Crime Division — a social introvert and a tech genius with a quick wit and self-deprecating honesty. Workaholic by day and night, Grumitz rarely, if ever, goes home.

Indeed, he spends countless hours cracking cyber cases while on the clock. Off the clock, he practices penetration tests on Conficker clones.





Inspired by the work of real-life CyberPsychologist Mary Aiken, "CSI: Cyber" centers on Special Agent Avery Ryan (Patricia Arquette) who heads the Cyber Crime Division of the FBI, a unit at the forefront of solving illegal activities that start in the mind, live online, and play out in the real world.

The project originated as planted spinoff episodes on "CSI" last season, which only featured Arquette.
