NCIS’: Rocky Carroll on ‘Hawai’i’ Cancellation & Franchise Future — Could He Appear on Tiva Spinoff?
“NCIS: Hawai’i” Shockingly Canceled – What’s Next for the Franchise?
In a surprising turn, “NCIS: Hawai’i” is ending its run after three seasons, leaving fans stunned. However, the NCIS universe is far from done expanding. With upcoming series like the Gibbs prequel “Origins” and a Tony-Ziva spinoff on the horizon, the franchise is still going strong.
Rocky Carroll, known for his role as the agency’s director, expressed his shock at the cancellation but remains hopeful for the future. He hinted at the possibility of crossover appearances from “Hawai’i” characters in other NCIS iterations, highlighting the interconnected nature of the franchise.
As for potential spinoffs, Carroll suggests exploring other divisions of the agency, like the REACT team, or even setting a series in a unique location like Costa Rica. While not every spinoff attempt may succeed, the solid foundation of the NCIS universe allows for experimentation and growth.
Reflecting on the franchise’s longevity, Carroll credits CBS for prioritizing the agency as the star of the show over individual characters. This approach has ensured the series’ resilience even after major cast changes, akin to other successful CBS dramas like CSI.
Despite “Hawai’i” coming to an end, the NCIS franchise shows no signs of slowing down. What are your thoughts on its current state? Let us know below.
