CBS’s FBI is getting its fourth spinoff, and this one will focus on the CIA.
The Dick Wolf procedural has had a rough start since its straight-to-series. Its backdoor pilot was cancelled, and several actors and executive producers left the show.
Having said all of that, the show is going forward with Tom Ellis and Nick Gehlfuss as the lead agents. Today, CBS released the first look at the series.
When by-the-book FBI Special Agent Bill Goodman (Gehlfuss) is loaned out to a clandestine CIA/FBI task force, he finds himself teamed up with secretive and roguish CIA case officer Colin Glass (Ellis). Together they will work covert operations in New York, uncovering international plots, terrorist cells, and geopolitical secrets. On CIA, Bill will learn the rules of this murky world on the fly as Colin leads him deeper into spy games where only one thing is clear — their work keeps America safe, even if no one will ever know what they did in the shadows. Necar Zadegan and Natalee Linez also star.
CIA premieres on February 28th. Are you going to watch?
