NCIS: Sydney premise

Rising global conflicts in the Indo-Pacific have the NCIS agents from the U.S. joining forces with the Australian Federal Police (AFP) to form a multi-national taskforce that will keep nautical crimes at bay. Those crimes they can’t prevent they will need to confront head on.

Leading the team is NCIS Special Agent Michelle Mackey, played by Olivia Swann (DC Legends of Tomorrow). Joining her is former Home And Away star Todd Lasance, who will be playing Olivia’s AFP counterpart, Sergeant Jim Dempsey.

NCIS and its spin-offs have been consistent in delivering high-stakes action and drama for over two decades. Long-time fans of the franchise can expect the same thrill with NCIS Sydney.

The series is created by Morgan O’Neill and produced by Endemol Shine Australia, one of the best production companies in the country.
