NCIS: New York will premiere on October 6 with a bang! The LL Cool J-led series will welcome NCIS’er Brian Dietzen, reprising the role of Jimmy Palmer.
Dietzen, who has been with NCIS since the procedural’s first season, has previously played the character in NCIS: New Orleans and NCIS: Hawai’i.
During a recent chat with LL Cool J, showrunner Byron Balasco teased the possibility of crossovers.
“There might be. I’ll put it to you like this: I welcome crossovers. I think crossovers are great, and they’re fun,” said the rapper and actor.
Added Balasco, “We’ll have to see what happens. I mean, we’re all in the universe, so you can kind of expect anything like that to happen.”
In the pilot, after years of special assignments and covert ops, Special Agent Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) returns to his hometown of New York City for a brand-new mission. When Sam’s friend and Navy reservist Jack Halloway is found dead, he requests permission from Assistant Special Agent-In-Charge Robyn Wells (Jennifer Beals) to investigate his friend’s death. As the team investigates Jack’s death, they work together to gather key information that can help find the culprits.
In the official trailer released yesterday, Robyn introduces Sam and Nick (Scott Caan), who will work closely with the rest of the team: clean-cut Wyatt Sellers (Shane Harper), bright-eyed Addy Ross (Jacqueline Byers), and hacker-turned-computer guy Sean Sullivan (Devin Druid).
