LL Cool J as Sam Hanna and Vanessa Lachey as Jane Tennant in a car in NCIS Hawai'i
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT NCIS almost had its first female team lead eight years before Vanessa Lachey became the Special Agent in Charge of the NCIS: Hawai'i team. The franchise has promoted many strong female characters throughout its varying team iterations in the main cast of NCIS, like Special Agents Caitlin Todd and Eleanor Bishop . That said, the franchise has recently normalized centering on women as team leaders.
Special Agent in Charge Paris Summerskill Was Almost NCIS's First Female Lead The Honor Would Have Belonged To Kim Raver Of NCIS: Red Close Paris Summerskill would have been the first female lead on NCIS had NCIS: Red been picked up for its own series after its launch on NCIS: Los Angeles. That said, NCIS: Red was canceled before it ever reached production.
Eventually, Scott Grimes returned to NCIS: Los Angeles as Flynn, but Raver's Special Agent in Charge didn't appear in the franchise again after the backdoor pilot. According to Digital Spy, Nina Tassler, the CBS entertainment president at the time, defended the cancelation, saying: "Protecting was really important.
Jane was a decisive lead for the show and brought exciting representation to the franchise. Lachey's character balanced the duality of being a caring parent and a capable agent, a balance that few NCIS agents have brought to the small screen. Unfortunately, NCIS: Hawai'i was canceled before season 4, making it the shortest-lived NCIS series. The franchise is experiencing massive losses with its cancelation, including its first official female Special Agent in Charge.
NCIS's Future Looks Bright Regarding Female Leads Cote de Pablo's NCIS Return Will Center Her Ziva David Character Despite the cancelation of NCIS: Hawai'i, the franchise will have exciting female leadership to look forward to aside from Special Agent Mackey. NCIS: Tony & Ziva will bring back Ziva, and she will be in one of the two leading roles in the spinoff.
