The entire series will be set in Sydney and feature an all-Australian cast and crew. Shane Brennan, an Australian, will be responsible for bringing NCIS Los Angeles to life will be the showrunner. Currently, there is no other information available as the announcement was only recently made.
NCIS Sydney will put Australia on the map once more as JAG did with its two-part storyline “Boomerang” in 2000.
The series will also provide international audiences will a look at how naval operations work in Australia. Unfortunately, there’s not much more we can share. Hopefully soon, we can share the cast announcement with you and the premiere date when it gets closer.
