After years protecting national security on the West Coast, Sam Hanna is heading home. CBS has confirmed that LL Cool J will headline NCIS: New York, a major new spinoff that brings the beloved NCIS: Los Angeles agent back to his roots in New York City. 🌆
Joining him is Scott Caan, who plays a bold and unpredictable agent partnering with Hanna to lead high-stakes operations across one of the world’s busiest strategic locations. The move marks an exciting evolution for Sam — a character fans followed across fourteen seasons of NCIS: Los Angeles.
The new drama will anchor CBS’s Tuesday night lineup this fall, airing between NCIS and NCIS: Origins. Longtime franchise creative force R. Scott Gemmill returns to write the pilot, ensuring continuity with the series that launched Sam’s journey.
Before the premiere arrives, Hanna makes his return in two special NCIS guest appearances later this April. 📺
