Surprise Addition to NCIS: Hawai’i Season 3 Cast! Will More Stars Join?

In the climactic first part of the NCIS Hawai’i Season 2 finale, the focal point revolves around the daring rescue of Special Agent in Charge Jane Tennant, portrayed by Vanessa Lachey. Tennant, already poised to escape her captors, owes her safety in part to a precisely timed sniper shot from Hanna.

Following the rescue, a brief phone conversation ensues between Tennant and Hanna, during which Tennant expresses her gratitude. However, Hanna casually downplays his role, attributing it to simply “doing his job.” Their exchange concludes with Hanna offering his assistance to Tennant whenever she may need it.

Hanna shares insights into his proximity to Tennant’s location in Venezuela, underscoring his sniper capabilities. The episode hints at Agent John Swift, portrayed by Henry Ian Cusick, seeking Hanna’s help in the future, bridging connections between the NCIS Los Angeles and Hawai’i storylines. This paves the way for LL Cool J’s recurrent involvement in the NCIS Hawai’i cast.

The conclusion of the Hawai’i episode also teases the potential return of other familiar faces from the original NCIS Los Angeles cast. Given the cancellation of the LA spinoff due to cost concerns, the opportunity arises for popular characters to resurface, unencumbered by the financial constraints of a long-running series.

Daniela Ruah has expressed interest in reprising her role as Kensi in NCIS Hawai’i, adding to the anticipation of beloved characters making a comeback. The prospect of a dynamic ensemble, including Hanna and potentially other fan-favorite figures, ensures an engaging continuation of their tales in the NCIS Hawai’i universe.
