‘Einstein’: Melissa Fumero Joins Matthew Gray Gubler in New CBS Dramedy
Melissa Fumero replaces Rosa Salazar as lead detective Teri in CBS's 2026 dramedy Einstein, set in New Jersey and featuring 2026 production start.
- Melissa Fumero has been cast as the female lead opposite Matthew Gray Gubler, portraying Teri, a detective inspector for the New Jersey state police on CBS's Einstein.
- Originally cast Rosa Salazar asked not to have her option picked up following the schedule change, and after CBS delayed the pilot initially slated for the 2025-2026 season, both sides parted by mutual agreement.
- The series is billed by CBS as a drama with comedic undertones, following Lewis Einstein, the great-grandson of Albert Einstein, who helps solve homicides while Teri, the sharp and disciplined detective, feels conflicted working with him.
- With Matthew Gray Gubler also producing, the series' creative team blends its star and behind-the-scenes roles, including executive producers Andy Breckman, Randy Zisk, Michael Rauch, Tariq Jalil, Rose Hughes, Rodrigo Herrera Ibarguengoytia and Laura Beetz, and will join CBS's 2026-2027 lineup.
- Fumero, best known for Brooklyn Nine-Nine, begins her role as production starts this month for CBS's 2026-2027 broadcast season.
