“I will be there -- so will Deputy Leo,” Greenfield told Gold Derby of the character he played in more than 10 episodes of the UPN/CW series. “I'm really excited about it. It's one of those few occasions where you're going to work on something and I think I'm going there for a day, where you're working on something everybody is so excited to be there. Everybody is going ot be going full force on this project and it’s going to be like a fun reunion. You want to go in there and do some really solid work because obviously, people put up their own money to see this. I think everybody who’s playing a part in this thing has a responsibility, which is fun and exciting.”
