NCIS: Sydney, produced by Endemol Shine Australia, is currently filming in the Australian port city and will later launch on Paramount+ and Australian broadcaster. The series follows the eclectic team of US NCIS agents and the Australian Federal Police (AFP) as part of a multinational task force to contain shipping crimes in the world's most contested stretch of ocean.
Paramount Australia and New Zealand Head of Drama Rick Maier said that "one of the most beloved franchises in the world is in the hands of one of our best production companies".
"NCIS: Sydney is exciting for all of us at Paramount and we hope it's one of the most highly anticipated assignments of the year," he added.
Lindsey Martin, CBS Studios' head of international co-productions and development, said: "We are excited to expand the NCIS franchise, one of our most powerful and iconic television IPs, across borders to Australia."
NCIS: Sydney launched last year and is produced for CBS Studios and Paramount Australia by Endemol Shine Australia and distributed outside Australia by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
NCIS, which stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service, started twenty years ago and has since expanded all over the US with versions in Los Angeles, New Orleans and Hawaii.
