NCIS: Origins has released a first look at the main cast of the CBS prequel series, which hits theaters in October.
The latest installment in the action-packed crime series features the legendary Leroy Jethro Gibbs (played by Mark Harmon) alongside Austin Stowell, who will portray the future Special Agent in Charge in his younger years.
“Origins” turns the clock back to the 1990s to follow Gibbs’ first steps at NCIS, then called NIS, at Camp Pendleton.
There are no high-tech gadgets to help the team this time around, as recently released snapshots from the set emphasize the retro feel of the show – including just a computer.
Gibbs will not have to take his first steps on the road to becoming an NCIS legend alone. At his side is Kyle Schmid in the form of the renowned agent Mike Franks, who acts as his mentor.
The rest of his team is finally taking shape, as eager fans have received new portraits of the main cast.
This includes “Promised Land” star Mariel Molino as Special Agent Lala Dominguez, a former Marine who will work closely with Gibbs throughout the series.
Lala’s relationship with Gibbs could also develop into something more as Origins progresses, as a description via TVLine confirms that their dynamic will be “full of sparks.”
Also joining the team is Diany Rodriguez from “The Blacklist” as Special Agent Vera Strickland, a character who originally appeared in season 11 of the flagship series “NCIS” in the role of Roma Maffia.
Tyla Abercrumbie of the Chi’s will play the group’s “mama bear,” Field Operation Support Officer Mary Jo Hayes.
She will apparently take over the leadership of the NIS office after appointing herself as Principal Secretary in charge.
Finally, Caleb Foote will play Special Agent Benjamin “Randy” Randolf, a “golden boy” who shows Gibbs the ropes in the early episodes of the series.
The suit and boot-clad cast have now been revealed in all their glory, complete with stylish and sometimes questionable 90s fashion.
However, there are still many familiar faces that we have yet to introduce.
Also joining the cast are Hollywood stars Lori Petty and Bobby Moynihan, who play a medical examiner and a forensic scientist respectively.
Daniel Bellomy and Julian Black Antelope also play parole officer Granville “Granny” Dawson and chief medical officer Kai Blackrock, while Patrick Fischler leads the task force as Special Agent in Charge Cliff Walker.
Finally, Robert Taylor will play Gibbs’ father Jackson Gibbs.
NCIS: Origins premieres on Monday, October 14 on CBS. NCIS is available to stream on Disney+.
