CBS is officially bringing a new powerhouse duo to television this fall. NCIS: New York will star LL Cool J as returning franchise legend Sam Hanna alongside Scott Caan, who joins the NCIS universe as a tough, unconventional federal agent. ⭐
Set inside the New York field office, the series follows their team as they tackle complex missions protecting one of the world’s most vital ports and cities. The pairing marks one of the franchise’s most anticipated character introductions in years.
The project reunites LL Cool J with longtime collaborator R. Scott Gemmill, who helped shape NCIS: Los Angeles across multiple seasons. Meanwhile, Kingdom creator Byron Balasco steps in as showrunner.
Fans eager to see Sam Hanna back in action won’t have to wait until fall. The character returns first in two special crossover-style appearances on NCIS later this month — offering an early glimpse of what’s ahead. 🚨
