Overview
- CBS and multiple outlets reported on Tuesday, July 7, that Jennifer Beals, Jacqueline Byers, Shane Harper and Devin Druid were cast as series regulars opposite LL Cool J and Scott Caan.
- Beals will play Robyn Wells, the assistant special agent in charge who directs the NCIS New York field office and supervises Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) and Nick Schaeffer (Scott Caan).
- Byron Balasco will serve as showrunner with R. Scott Gemmill and others listed as executive producers, and the series is produced by CBS Studios and distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
- The show received a straight-to-series order and is set to begin filming in New York later this month; it will air Tuesdays at 9 p.m. this fall and stream on Paramount+ the next day.
- The casting brings a mix of franchise familiarity and new faces to CBS’s expanding NCIS slate, a move designed to draw existing viewers to a branded Tuesday night and to support on-location production jobs in New York.
