Katee Sackhoff 'has bravado on CSI'

George Eads has dropped hints about Katee Sackhoff's guest role on CSI.

The former 24 star recently signed up to play an investigator called Detective Reed.

Eads has now told TV Guide that his character Nick will initially dislike Reed's stubborn nature.

However, he added: "She plays her character with a lot of bravado, which is something I think Nick really likes to be around."

Eads also admitted that he does not know whether Nick and Reed will begin a romance in the future, saying: "For Nick to have a relationship with anyone on the show, the genesis of it has to be mutual respect."

Eads revealed that it is still not clear how many episodes will feature Sackhoff but added: "I would like to see her again."

CSI continues on Thursdays at 9/8c on CBS.
