Longtime NCIS fans are about to see a familiar face again. LL Cool J is set to reprise his role as special agent Sam Hanna in an episode airing April 21 during Season 22.
The announcement came directly from the star, who posted a short Instagram video from the set confirming his return.
Cool J first joined the franchise in 2009 before starring in NCIS: Los Angeles, which ran for 14 seasons. The character later crossed over to NCIS: Hawaiʻi, making him one of the most widely traveled agents in the franchise.
With NCIS already renewed for Season 23, the return of Sam Hanna adds even more excitement to the expanding universe.
