Lots of the stars have since reacted to NCIS: LA’s large information, and the upcoming conclusion of the long-running collection feels all of the extra actual with every passing day. All of the whereas, the forged has seemingly been reflective relating to their time on the present. With that, Sam Hanna himself, LL Cool J, is now opening up concerning the greatest lesson he’s discovered because of starring on the procedural for over a decade.
LL Cool J has portrayed NCIS Particular Agent Sam Hanna because the present debuted in 2009, so it’s not shocking to listen to that he’s taken in a number of classes whereas being part of it. Whereas talking to ET, the rapper revealed that the NCIS spinoff has uncovered him to completely different sorts of individuals, and it appears like that is helped to reinforce his view of the world:
Taught me quite a bit. As a result of day in and day trip, I work with individuals from all around the nation and all around the world. You recognize, I might have by no means been uncovered in the identical day. I’ve one man celebrating Rosh Hashanah, and one other man from West Virginia and one other man who’s in a biking factor, and one other man who’s Irish, and… this individual from the islands, and I am working with all of those individuals every single day. So that you be taught.
It’s fascinating to listen to what actors expertise whereas filming tasks, and it is much more intriguing after they simply so occur to have starred on the identical manufacturing for so long as the rapper has. There are such a lot of storylines that may (and do) occur on exhibits like NCIS: LA however, given this explicit present’s numerous backdrop, it particularly is sensible that it will embody a big selection of individuals. And that may actually make for an eye-opening expertise for some.
It appears like LL Cool J will certainly maintain onto what he is discovered throughout his time on the CBS staple. Later in the identical interview, he shared extra heat ideas that emphasize his want to look after his fellow man:
You be taught that individuals are individuals. You be taught that individuals are human, and all of these unconscious bias that you’ve got that makes you hesitate to embrace sure kinds of individuals, all that falls away since you understand everyone’s the identical. It is completely different, however we the identical, what I am saying?
If there’s something these previous a number of years have taught us, it is that empathy is extremely essential. To not get on a soapbox with this, however we dwell in a harmful world, and we would all be higher if we confirmed real love and concern for each other.
In the meantime, as followers put together for the tip of NCIS: Los Angeles, the celebrities are doing the identical. Daniela Ruah defined why the CBS drama means a lot to her, and LL Cool J opened up about what a experience the collection has been. It’s going to be onerous to say goodbye to the crew, however the writers and producers will seemingly ship off the characters on a excessive notice. (I am additionally hoping they present up in future episodes of NCIS and NCIS: Hawai’i.)
Though LA‘s conclusion does appear sudden, at the very least followers have been in a position to get an NCIS franchise first this season when all three at the moment airing exhibits crossed over for the primary time. All of the whereas, NCIS: Sydney nonetheless on the way in which. The acclaimed TV property will certainly proceed for years to return however, because it does so, I am hoping that its stars take an empathetic web page out of LL Cool J’s ebook and be taught a few of the classes that he picked up.
