NCIS Star Daniela Ruah’s Selfies Spark Excitement Amidst Epic Comeback!
Excitement is brewing among fans of the NCIS universe as Daniela Ruah makes her highly anticipated return, this time stepping behind the camera as a director. Following the conclusion of NCIS: Los Angeles in May, Ruah returned to the set not as Kensi Blye, but to helm two episodes within the franchise—one for NCIS and another for NCIS: Hawai’i.
After her NCIS episode premiered on March 4th, Ruah took to Instagram to share a sneak peek with her followers, expressing her enthusiasm for the opportunity. The post received overwhelming support from fans and former co-stars, with Eric Christian Olsen notably showing his solidarity through a supportive comment.
Throughout the airing of her episode, Ruah remained engaged with her fans, sharing behind-the-scenes photos featuring familiar faces from the NCIS universe, such as Wilmer Valderrama and Gary Cole. Fans showered her with praise for her directorial debut, applauding her work and expressing eagerness for more.
Reflecting on her transition from portraying Kensi for 15 years to directing, Ruah described it as an honor to return to the familiar set in a new capacity in an interview with Deadline. She emphasized the warm welcome she received from the cast and crew, likening it to “coming home.”
Fans can look forward to Ruah’s directorial debut for NCIS: Hawai’i next month, as she continues to make her mark on the beloved franchise.
