“NCIS: New York,” the upcoming newest entry in the CBS franchise, has added four new cast members.
Variety has confirmed that Jennifer Beals (“The L Word,” “Devil in a Blue Dress”), Jacqueline Byers (“Salvation,” “Dark Winds”), Shane Harper (“Good Luck Charlie,” “Power Book IV: Force”), and Devin Druid (“13 Reasons Why,” “Olive Kitteridge”) have all been cast in series regular roles. They will appear opposite previously announced leads LL Cool J and Scott Caan.
In the show, LL Cool J will reprise the role of NCIS Special Agent Sam Hanna, whom he played for 14 seasons on “NCIS: Los Angeles.” The logline for the show states:
“Legendary NCIS Special Agent Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) returns to his hometown of New York City to the NCIS field office, partnering with a roguish agent (Caan) and helping lead a new team as they are tasked with high-stakes missions to defend one of the most vital cities and ports in the world.”
Beals will play Assistant Special Agent in Charge Robyn Wells, described as “the director of the NCIS New York field office who leads with her intuition and is widely respected by her team.” Byers stars as NCIS Special Agent Addison “Addy” Ross, said to be “a rock-solid, tough and resourceful agent with something to prove.”
