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 program logline says:
“Legendary NCIS Special Agent Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) returns to his hometown of New York City to the NCIS field office, teaming up with a rogue agent (Caan) and helping lead a new team as they are assigned high-risk missions to defend one of the most vital cities and ports in the world.”
Beals will play Deputy 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 plays NCIS Special Agent Addison “Addy” Ross, who is said to be “a solid, tough, resourceful agent with something to prove.”
Harper plays NCIS Special Agent Wyatt Hill, “who is brave, cunning, highly skilled in the field, and a hopeless romantic.” Druid plays NCIS technology specialist Sean Sullivan, “who is witty and brilliant but resistant to authority.”
Beals is represented by CAA, Constellation Media Group and Felker McGinnis & Ryan. Byers is represented by Stand Entertainment, CESD Talent Agency and Jackoway Austen Tyerman. Harper is represented by Gersh, Luber Roklin Entertainment and Jackoway Austen Tyerman. Druid is represented by Untitled Entertainment and Gang Tire.
The “NCIS: New York” pilot was written by R. Scott Gemmill, who wrote all 14 seasons of “NCIS: Los Angeles” and was showrunner for seven seasons; He now serves as writer and creator of “The Pitt” on HBO Max. Byron Balasco, who was a writer and producer on CBS’ “Without a Trace” and created the Audience Network series “Kingdom,” will serve as showrunner for “NCIS: New York.”
