The trail has gone cold on a Cold Case reboot, which is no longer in the works at CBS.

According to our sister site Deadline, the Eye Network is not moving forward with a new iteration of its 2003-2010 crime procedural, which was reportedly in the works as of this past April.

Reps for CBS and Warner Bros. Television did not immediately respond to TVLine’s request for comment.

The original Cold Case ran for seven seasons on CBS, following a division of the Philadelphia Police Department that specialized in investigating unsolved criminal cases. Kathryn Morris starred as homicide detective Lilly Rush, with Danny Pino, John Finn, Jeremy Ratchford, Thom Barry and Tracie Thoms rounding out the main ensemble.

Details of CBS’ potential reboot were scarce, but the follow-up would have been set in the Southwest instead of Philadelphia, centering on a new group of detectives dedicated to solving cold cases. Original Cold Case creator Meredith Stiehm was reportedly attached to write the script and serve as an executive producer.
