CSI:NY Cast Photo Is A Blast From the Past

CSI:NY has used a historical photo as a basis for it’s Season 5 cast shot.

“‘CSI: NY’ chose the Charles C. Ebbets 1932 ‘Lunch on a Skyscraper’ photograph because we wanted to cement our cast members as timeless icons in this generation,” said Anthony E. Zuiker, creator of the “CSI” franchise. “If you look closely, there is a story within the story with all of the actors.”

The original photo depicts 11 construction workers eating lunch on a steal girder with their feet dangling hundreds of feet above the New York City streets. The picture was snapped in 1932 on the 69th floor of the GE Building towards the end of the building’s construction.

The Season 5 cast photo shows 8 members of the the cast, including new regular A. J. Buckley, having lunch in an similar situation.

The Devil, in this image, is in the details,” he[Zuiker] said. “For example, Stella [Melina Kanakaredes] is holding an iPhone while Mac [Gary Sinise] opts to lower his New York Times. Indeed, a sign of the times in terms of technology. Paper versus wireless. Danny [Carmine Giovinazzo] and Lindsay [Anna Belknap] are sharing a sandwich, but if you look closely, her toes grabbing the cuff of his jeans signifies their love for each other. In fact, the two make a perfect heart. I’ll leave the rest of the cast to your imagination.”
