NCIS Sydney stars celebrate new Australian franchise

The cast of the new series NCIS: Sydney was spotted on board a superyacht on Saturday.

The cast were all dressed up as they boarded the superyacht for the launch event.

Australian actor Todd Lasance led his co-stars to the global launch of the new NCIS show as they walked along the pier where the ship was docked.

The 38-year-old, who is best known for his role as Aden Jeffries in Home and Away, looked dashing in a gray pinstripe suit with a double-breasted jacket.

Meanwhile, fellow countryman Tuuli Narkle in a low-cut black blouse with matching trousers.

While Mavournee Hazel went for a black Greek-inspired dress with two large white rose-shaped features at the neck and stomach.

Sean Sagar completed the cast’s stylish statement in a chic black suit with his collar unbuttoned for a casual touch.

All five main cast posed on the dock for some photo opportunities before climbing onto the yacht.

After the cast boarded the ship, stocked with chilled wine and other treats, they posed for more photos while enjoying the warm harbor air.

But the stars of the show weren’t the only ones in attendance, with Married At First Sight’s Jules Robinson and Cam Merchant also boarding the superyacht.

The reality TV stars were dressed to the nines, with Jules looking radiant in a shimmering purple dress, and Cam taking an elegant photo in a fitted off-white suit and black shirt.

Streaming giant Paramount+ released the trailer for the first-ever international series of NCIS in September.

The new teaser shows a team of US NCIS agents and the Australian Federal Police trying to stop naval crimes.

In the video, English actress Olivia Swann and Australian actor Todd Lasance team up after a murder.

“We need to find these guys… and what’s worse is they’re still out there,” Olivia says.

Olivia, 31, plays the head of NCIS in Sydney, while Todd’s character is her second-in-command.

The NCIS: Sydney series was released on November 10, three days before its US debut.

This marks the first time the NCIS franchise is launching an international version of the show after producing the successful spin-offs NCIS Los Angeles, NCIS Hawaii and NCIS New Orleans.

British TV actor Sean Sagar also stars as an American NCIS investigator.

Also appearing in the cast are Mystery Road: Origin star Tuuli Narkle and former Neighbors star Mavournee Hazel, who play AFP investigators.

Veteran Australian film and TV actor William McInnes, famous for his role in the hit ABC series SeaChange, also joins the cast as a forensic pathologist.

NCIS ranks as the most watched TV series, attracting an average of 12 million viewers per episode in the US.

The series could eventually beat three shows in the Law & Order franchise to become the longest-running TV show. The current title holder is Law & Order: SVU, which ran for 23 seasons.

NCIS was a spin-off of CBS’ JAG, both created by Donald P. Bellisario, that ran for ten seasons between 1995 and 2005.

The show eventually spawned a number of CBS spin-offs of its own, NCIS: Los Angeles, which debuted in 2009 and is currently in its 13th season, NCIS: New Orleans, which was canceled after seven seasons, and NCIS: Hawaii, which debuted this spring.
