Actor Michael Nouri as the lawyer for Eddie Barrett on NCIS: New Orleans. Pic credit: CBS NCIS: New Orleans saw the return of actor Michael Nouri on Tuesday night. But there was a twist. Nouri wasn’t playing the same character that he was recognizable for on the NCIS cast. So what’s going on here?
He often takes calls from Director Leon Vance (Rocky Carroll) at NCIS Headquarters in Washington, D.C. He is a geek and, like Detective Marty Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen), enjoys surfing (twice standing his surfboard too closely to Hetty's car) and internet social networks.

Season 12NCIS: Los Angeles Season 12 At the beginning of the season the position of LAPD-NCIS Liaison Officer is terminated by the LAPD. Therefore, Deeks is no longer a member of the OSP Team.
The series stars Chris O'Donnell, Daniela Ruah, Eric Christian Olsen, Medalion Rahimi, Caleb Castille, Gerald McRaney, and LL Cool J. McRaney was promoted to series regular prior to the season following the departures of Barrett Foa and Renée Felice Smith after the previous season and Linda Hunt this season.
Marty Deeks, more than any other character on NCIS: LA, is given the opportunity to leave often. Whether it's being furloughed from his job as liaison to the LAPD, or not graduating from the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, Marty's presence is shaky at best.
During their latest daring mission, Kensi and Deeks bond with a young girl named Rosa (Natalia Del Riego).
But before you cut the TV cord, get a load of this good news: Daniela spoke out and all but confirmed that Eric and Deeks aren't going anywhere. “Listen, if Eric were leaving the show permanently, we would know about that by now, and that's obviously not the case,” she told TVLine.

Dominic "Dom" Vail (portrayed by Adam Jamal Craig) was introduced in the episode "Identity" as the team's rookie agent. He was originally partnered with Kensi Blye. Dom is not a native of Los Angeles. An MIT alumnus, Dom moved straight to LA after he was recruited by NCIS following graduation.
As a result, Granger was assigned to stay in Los Angeles on a temporary basis. In the season three finale, he helped the team tackle the case of "The Chameleon", a serial killer responsible for the deaths of Agent Mike Renko and former Operations Manager Lauren Hunter.
Mike Renko (portrayed by Brian Avers ) is an NCIS agent introduced in the back-door pilot from NCIS. He first appeared in NCIS: Los Angeles as a recurring character in the episode " Ambush ", in which he assisted the team with information on a dangerous militia group. He also appeared in the episode "The Bank Job". His next appearance was on the episode "Burned", when Hetty called for help as they had a shortage of agents since Callen went off the radar and the server was hacked. He was shot as he, Sam, and Kensi ambushed an alleged terrorist, but it hit his bulletproof vest and he escaped with minor injuries. It was assumed that Renko was still in an undercover assignment outside of the United States.

Abby Sciuto. Abby Sciuto (portrayed by Pauley Perrette) is a regular from NCIS who has appeared in two episodes of NCIS: Los Angeles ("Killshot" and "Random on Purpose"). Abby is complimented by Hetty as "the first NCIS employee [she] has ever met with a sense of style".
During a joint sting (against Fisk, an illegal arms dealer) involving the NCIS and the LAPD, Deeks appears to blow away a peripheral bad guy whom he believes to pack, but who in fact has no piece; Hetty fires Deeks after the LAPD cuts all its ties with the NCIS; when Deeks leaves the office, he and Kensi have a friendly chat.

Actor Vyto Ruginis has played the character of Arkady Kolcheck all along, but over the years, he has also appeared on numerous other television shows and films. An interesting tidbit is that Ruginis played Agent William Randall Hawkins on two episodes of JAG (Nobody’s Child, Meltdown).
In the current storyline, Arkady is mostly seen as the father of Anna Kolcheck, who has been in a romantic relationship with Callen for a while.
JAG was the show that led to the original NCIS, with the two main JAG stars (David James Elliott, Catherine Bell) recently guest-starring on NCIS: Los Angeles. Other shows that Ruginis has appeared on in one episode stints include CSI: Miami, Boston Legal, Shameless, and Major Crimes.
During Overdue, Callen was trying to meet with Arkady about what looked to be an engagement ring. Arkady missed the first two meetings and Callen got cold feet the third time around.
Hannah Khoury ( Necar Zadegan) is a former NCIS Senior Field Agent. After Pride is promoted to Special Agent in Charge, she transfers to the New Orleans field office as a Supervisory Special Agent (S.S.A.) to replace him as the team's direct supervisor.
Zahra Taylor. Zahra Taylor ( Amanda Warren) is the Mayor of New Orleans from Season 4 onward. Previously the Interim Mayor after Mayor Hamilton's arrest, she was elected on a special election against conservative Vernon Butler. Her campaign was assisted by Wade and presumably the entire NCIS team.
Isler goes "off book" to pursue an opioid theft ring in the Season 4 episode "The Last Mile", and the trail leads him to New Orleans. In this episode it is revealed that he was once hooked on pain killers after an injury. He is coached by NCIS Agent Sonja Percy in his determination to accompany her in an undercover sting operation, and he performs well. In the closing episodes of Season 5, "The River Styx" Parts 1 & 2, Isler has traveled undercover to the disputed territory of South Ossetia in the Caucasus in pursuit of Avery Walker and Apollyon — the same criminals pursued by Pride and NCIS New Orleans. Isler is taken hostage by a local military warlord, and Pride and LaSalle team up with a local military operator to ransom Isler and escape to nearby friendly territory in the Republic of Georgia. Pride stays behind to give cover for LaSalle and an injured Isler to get away via motorboat. Isler participates then in a scheme to root out a mole in U.S. intelligence by faking his death, claimed to be due to wounds (rather than injuries) incurred in his rescue. He is put into a deep sleep and carried off the aircraft in New Orleans in a flag-draped coffin, only to be re-awakened in secret by coroner Loretta Wade injecting him with adrenaline. Meanwhile Pride ends up in the hands of Apollyon and its leader Avery Walker, who had earlier escaped from prison in New Orleans.
Cassius Pride ( Stacy Keach) was Dwayne Pride's incarcerated father, who has a shady past, being a veritable kingpin in the "running" of New Orleans city and parish, "back in the day." He is in prison for being caught and convicted of robbing a casino. His son Dwayne visits him from time-to-time, and Cassius feels his son shouldn't be so bitter about being raised in an underworld figure's home. Dwayne thinks maybe trying to make up for his father's crooked deeds is one reason why he went so far the other way, becoming a top law enforcement officer and agent. Dwayne's own mother had a nervous breakdown and had to move "halfway round the globe" just to get away from Cassius's influence and adulterous ways. Dwayne told his father that prison is the only place he can be kept where he would be safe from himself. Because of Cassius's old underworld experiences and connections, Dwayne sometimes consults with him on certain cases. Even in prison Cassius remains the semi-lovable con artist, trying to leverage his son into writing a letter of support for his annual parole hearings; even trying to use his granddaughter Laurel to work on Dwayne's sentiments. Eventually, Dwayne does help Cassius at the end of Season 1 by writing him that long-sought letter of support to the parole board, although it is revealed later that Cassius did not actually make parole until sometime after Season 4's episode "Mirror, Mirror", where he is still in prison. Whenever Cassius does make parole, he stays in New Orleans for a while, but by the time of Season 5's "Tick Tock", he had been living a "good life" in "Evansville, Kentucky", in some kind of witness cover program, with armed federal agents protecting him; it was from here that he was kidnapped by Apollyon and held for ransom along with Dr. Loretta Wade. Some time during or after prison, he had taken up painting, which his granddaughter Laurel thinks is simple but cute, saying his trees look like "green marshmallows". Cassius has a very pragmatic view of life and crime, as exemplified in his involvement in his son's childhood sports endeavors. Cassius: "I'm on my way to fix things right now." Dwayne: "Like you fixed my Little League career?" Cassius: "Hey, you were a natural-born shortstop. The coach just didn't see it." Dwayne: "So you planted a brick of hash in his truck and had him arrested." Cassius, laughing: "Well it worked, didn't it?" Dwayne told his father that in spite of all his shady history, that he trusts Cassius to be the one person that loves the people and city of New Orleans "almost as much as me." As revealed in the Season 5 episode "In The Blood", one of younger Cassius's (Justin Miles) long-term extra-marital affairs produced a boy named Jimmy Boyd (Craig Cauley Jr., as the young Jimmy; & Jason Alan Carvell, as the adult Jimmy), a half-brother to Dwayne, but to whom Cassius devoted quite a bit of time when Jimmy was young, teaching him to fish at his bayou cabin, and even giving him Dwayne's bicycle. Cassius is murdered in the Season 5 episode "Tick Tock" (continued into the first minutes of the subsequent episode "Vindicta"); Cassius's courage and resourcefulness here saves Dr. Loretta Wade's life, as well as two other hostages. Cassius's last act was saving the life of his son Dwayne while the two of them were freeing captives, by stepping in the way of several bullets fired at Dwayne by assassin Amelia Parsons Stone.
Pride went on to have an illustrious career that took him around the world, including Russia and South Africa, culminating in his return to Louisiana to head up NCIS operations at the United States Marine Corps Support Facility in Algiers, Louisiana before NCIS opened a proper NCIS Resident Agency in New Orleans.
Agent Naomi Parsons ( Kate Beahan) is an Australian ADFIS Investigator seconded to New Orleans, and a romantic interest for Dwayne Pride, in the Season 2 episode "Foreign Affairs." In due course, she became too aggressive in her pursuit of a U. S. Navy suspect in a case involving a dead Australian naval officer, stepped on Pride's toes, attempted to usurp jurisdiction, and set back the New Orleans team's case. Pride pushes back and gets her removed from the case, prompting coroner Loretta Wade to laugh in declaring, "Ooh! Takes talent to get under Dwayne Pride's skin!" Pride's daughter Laurel thinks Agent Parsons would be a good choice for a girlfriend for her dad. Parsons finally confesses to Pride that she was once a well-off lawyer whose pursuit of justice brought her into the investigative side of the law; now she's still "hard-charging", providing answers and comfort and closure to service members' families who have suffered the loss of a loved one. A sympathetic Pride responds, "I know that racket." He invites her back on the case.
Christopher Lasalle ( Lucas Black) was a senior NCIS Special Agent. He is also a native of Alabama, he was born in 1982. Lasalle was first a detective out of the New Orleans Police Department 's Fifth District at the time of Hurricane Katrina and then spent seven years on the NOPD vice squad.

Mark Harmon, who plays Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs on the parent show NCIS has also appeared on NOLA. Rocky Carroll, who plays NCIS Director Leon Vance, has appeared on NCIS and both spin-offs. It helps keep continuity among the shows.
Character actors make their livings off of appearing on numerous shows in singular episodes or story arcs called recurring characters . Nouri is one of those actors. He has also appeared on Yellowstone, American Crime Story, Blue Bloods, Chicago P.D., House, and many others.
He was the father of Ziva David (played by Cote de Pablo) and the grandfather to Tali David-DiNozzo. Not easily forgettable. But the character died a number of seasons ago during an episode that aired in 2013. Now, actor Michael Nouri has returned to the NCIS universe, but this time on a show ...
Nouri is one of those actors. He has also appeared on Yellowstone, American Crime Story, Blue Bloods, Chicago P.D., House, and many others. Shows that are linked, like the three NCIS show or the trio of Chicago-based shows on NBC, share a universe where characters can cross over.
So what’s going on here? Nouri was one of the first faces seen during a new episode called Conviction. His character is a defense attorney for Eddie Barrett, who was on trial for the murder of Christopher Lasalle.
That episode, which was the last one where Lucas Black appeared as Lasalle, won’t be forgotten by viewers anytime soon. But back to this new episode, where some fans were dismayed by the revelation that one actor (Nouri) was playing two different characters in the same NCIS timeline. Now you see him….
