NCIS: Red revolves around a mobile team of agents forced to live and work together as they crisscross the country solving crimes.
The backdoor pilot will air on March 19th and 26th as NCIS: LA episodes. Both episodes were written by Shane Brennan. NCISLA episode “Red” (4×18) will be directed by Tony Wharmby.
After NCISLA (of NCIS) and NCIS (of JAG) it will be the third Spin-Off in the “NCIS Universe”…
Kim Raver as Paris (NCIS:Red)
Paris:
This Special Agent is a twice-divorced badass who is as sexy as she is tough and as smart as she is sexy. In other words, she is formidable on just about every level. Her one weakness? Though she’s part of a team, she works best when she works alone. Paris has a Degree in Forensic Science, can drive a golf ball 300 yards and has a brain snapping IQ in the 98th percentile.
Kim Raver (@kimraver) is known for her roles in e.g. Grey’s Anatomy and 24 and her latest recurring role on NBC’s Revolution.
John Corbett as Roy Quaid (NCIS:Red)
Roy Quaid:
Though he is (not-at-all-willingly) retired from active duty, this former Special Agent is still employed as the group’s Operations Manager. However, it’s widely acknowledged that he is nonetheless their shrewdest investigator.
John Corbett (@realjohncorbett) is known for his roles in e.g. Northern Exposure, Sex and the City and the United States of Tara.
Scott Grimes as Dave (NCIS:Red)
Dave:
The team’s forensic specialist (and resident oddball) is an ex-NYPD detective who has a little skill at a lotta things. Except driving. Apparently, at that, he has no skill whatsoever! He has an eye for clues and a nose for lies.
Scott Grimes (@scottgrimes) is known for his roles in e.g. ER, American Dad and an episode of the flagship NCIS drama.
Gilian Alexy as Claire (NCIS:Red)
Claire:
She graduated at the top of her class at Harvard and is described as “educated, worldly, athletic and as tough as she is beautiful.” She has trained with the Navy SEALs, lived with a British SAS soldier and loves all things military, with a strong passion for photography, inherited from her war correspondent father. Though she views herself as a tomboy, the world sees her as a stunningly attractive woman.
Gilian Alexy is best known for her role on Damages.
Edwin Hodge as Kai Ashe (NCIS:Red)
Kai Ashe:
The group’s young IT guy apparently is so bright — thanks, MIT! — he doesn’t just say “Did you try rebooting?” No wonder they all love him like a kid brother.
Edwin Hodge (@edwinhodge) is best known for his role on WB’s Jack & Bobby, he also recurred on Cougar Town as Busy Phillips’ love interest.
Miguel Ferrer as Assistant Director Owen Granger (NCISLA / NCIS:Red)
NCIS: LA’s Miguel Ferrer will reprise his role as NCIS assistant director Owen Granger.
Come back later this week when Phillydi will share her own thoughts about the Spin-Off in her newest column “In The Bullpen“.
