This is a first for Navy CIS: The crime series is getting another addition. But this time, the franchise surprises with the location of the action. Find out what you can expect from the new spin-off.
NCIS has long been much more than just a series. The story about the so-called Naval Criminal Investigative Service emerged 20 years ago from the parent series J.A.G. – On a mission of honor. Since then, several spin-offs have been created, such as NCIS: Hawaii and NCIS: New Orleans. In just a few weeks, another spin-off is coming – and this time, everything is different.
What’s so special about the new NCIS series?
Until now, Navy CIS spin-offs have been scattered throughout various metropolitan regions of the U.S. – often in particularly sunny areas. The latter is also true for the upcoming spin-off. However, NCIS: Sydney – the name gives it away – is set in faraway Australia. This is a first for the long-running crime franchise.
What is NCIS: Sydney about?
Olivia Swann stars as NCIS special agent Michelle Mackey. She is supported by Todd Lasance as Sergeant Jim Dempsey. The duo leads a five-person team of various special criminal investigative forces. At its heart is the collaboration between the American NCIS organization and the Australian AFP (Australia Federal Police). Together, the teams fight crime Down Under.
