NCIS: Los Angeles may be over, but the series' legacy lives on, in a way. On top of cast member Daniela Ruah returning to direct an episode of both NCIS and its Hawai’i spinoff, her co-star, LL Cool J, is heading to Honolulu for the latter. It was previously announced that the rapper would be reprising his role as Special Agent Sam Hanna on the upcoming third season of Hawai’i and will recur throughout the season. Now, a synopsis has previewed just what will bring him to the tropical island, and it sounds like Sam will appear in a surprising capacity, which is linked to Vanessa Lachey's Jane Tennant.
Ahead of CBS’ highly-anticipated premieres that begin amid Super Bowl week, the network released synopses and photos from all of the upcoming shows, including the NCIS spinoff. In the Season 3 premiere, “Run and Gun,” Sam is the one who conducts Tennant’s final interview following her medical and psych evaluations -- all of which comes before she’s cleared to work. That’s not all Sam will be doing either, as he'll be teaming up with Jane in Las Vegas to locate a hacker after there’s a breach in the U.S. Marshal’s database.
