Good news for Scott Bakula<\/strong> fans; the actor will be seen in a two-part episode of NCIS<\/em> which may lead to a spinoff series set in New Orleans.<\/p>\n Bakula will play special agent Pride in the episodes.<\/p>\n Pride is to be a character who “embodies New Orleans. He’s driven by the need to do what’s right and does it all with warmth, passion, strength and humor.”<\/p>\n In the two episodes, which will begin filming later this month to be seen sometime this spring, “NCIS special agent Gibbs (Mark Harmon<\/strong>) will be in contact with Pride, a friend from their days in the earlier Naval Investigative Service, after the death of a mutual friend who also was an agent.”<\/p>\n Other characters to be included in the New Orleans NCIS spinoff will include the “no-nonsense (Brody), a government-employee fa\u00e7ade on an Ivy League mind (and) Grace Kelly<\/strong>-like in her class, pomp and circumstance; and LaSalle, a local man and former sheriff’s deputy who has “been through some rough times. An outspoken female medical examiner, Dr. Wade, works with the unit.”<\/p>\n If the spinoff is successful, NCIS: New Orleans<\/em> will air next season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good news for Scott Bakula fans; the actor will be seen in a two-part episode…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413],"tags":[2599,5486],"class_list":["post-32204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cast-crew","tag-bakula","tag-ncis"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T'Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"Cast & Crew<\/a>","tag_info":"Cast & Crew","comment_count":"3","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32204","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32204"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32204\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32210,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32204\/revisions\/32210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32204"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
