From tactical vests to undercover glam, the NCIS: Los Angeles cast knows how to make a statement — on and off screen. But what colors do they gravitate toward when the cameras stop rolling? We did a little digging into interviews, red carpet looks, and social media clues to uncover each cast member’s favorite hue. And yes, their choices say a lot about them.
💚 Daniela Ruah (Kensi Blye)
Favorite Color: Green
Strong, grounded, and full of life — just like Kensi herself. Daniela has mentioned her love for green tones, which isn’t surprising given her outdoorsy vibe and balanced energy. Whether it’s emerald or olive, green symbolizes renewal — and Ruah’s resilience shines through in every role.
💙 Chris O’Donnell (G. Callen)
Favorite Color: Blue (Likely)
The man behind the ever-mysterious Callen leans toward calming and classic. While Chris hasn’t said it outright, he often rocks navy and slate blue on the red carpet. A true-blue favorite fits his cool, steady demeanor — dependable, composed, and quietly confident.
🔴 LL Cool J (Sam Hanna)
Favorite Color: Red
Power, passion, presence — it’s no surprise that LL Cool J is drawn to red. Whether he’s donning crimson sneakers or a bold red cap, LL embraces the color of energy and leadership. It’s a shade that screams confidence, much like Sam Hanna’s fearless loyalty.
⚫ Eric Christian Olsen (Marty Deeks)
Favorite Color: Black (Inferred)
Laid-back with a comedic edge, Eric often opts for understated neutrals — especially black. He wears it well, both on the show and in real life. Black is a color of mystery and elegance, but also practicality. Just like Deeks, it’s more complex than it looks on the surface.
🖤 Linda Hunt (Hetty Lange)
Favorite Color: Undisclosed, But Likely Neutrals
Private, polished, and timeless — Linda Hunt has always kept her personal favorites close to the vest. Still, her wardrobe of rich blacks, charcoal grays, and warm neutrals reflects a refined aesthetic. If we had to guess? Her palette is as quietly powerful as Hetty herself.
🎬 What Their Colors Say
Color isn’t just a preference — it’s personality. Green for growth. Blue for calm. Red for power. Black for mystery. And for this cast of characters, each favorite shade reflects the depth and charisma they bring to the screen week after week.
