CM – ‘NCIS: Hawai’i’ casts Vanessa Lachey as the leading actress, casts Yasmine Al-Bustami and Jason Antoon

The newest spin-off in the franchise, NCIS: Hawai’i, was ordered straight to the series just a week ago, and Vanessa Lachey, Yasmine Al-Bustami and Jason Antoon were cast as regulars according to deadline reports.

As mentioned earlier, this is the first show in the NCIS world to feature a female lead: Jane Tennant from Lachey. She is the first female special agent in charge of NCIS Pearl Harbor and is described as someone « as diplomatic as he is tenacious ». She is also a mother who « mostly » raises her children alone and balances her work and private life. (Lachey actually already has a connection to the franchise via a guest appearance on Hawaii Five-0 that went with NCIS: LA.)

Al-Bustami plays the team’s junior member, Lucy, who is considered « confident in the. » Is described in a way that reflects a life full of success and youthful enthusiasm « . She also « strives to be the first to find this vital piece of evidence, create a workaround in the bureaucracy, or attack a suspect down a flight of stairs. »

Antoons Ernie is the Cyber ​​Intelligence Specialist. He is the point of contact for tracking IP addresses and profiling suspects based on social media posts. He is « a multilingual with a keen sense for technology, history, literature, and anything Hawaiian. »

NCIS: Hawai’i joins the prime time cast of CBS shortly after the franchise split after seven seasons of NCIS: New Orleans has passed (the series finale is scheduled for May 23). NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles will be back for the 19th and 13th time respectively for the 2021-2022 season. We’ll have to wait and see if there is a crossover. This is pretty rare, especially when compared to other franchises currently on the air like One Chicago and Law & Order on NBC.
