For many of the NCIS: Los Angeles stars, the series wasn’t just a job — it was a defining chapter of their lives.
Daniela Ruah shared how she joined the show at 24 and is now 39, describing the experience as “an absolute dream.” Eric Christian Olsen reflected on the “spectacular journey,” while Chris O’Donnell expressed gratitude for 14 unforgettable years.
Even cast members who joined later, like Caleb Castille and Medalion Rahimi, acknowledged the rare achievement of reaching 14 seasons in today’s television landscape.
With the finale set for May 14, the cast is preparing to close a chapter that shaped both their careers and the NCIS franchise.
