Once again, a CBS action drama borrows the cast from an earlier sister series. Beulah Koale, who played former Navy SEAL Junior Reigns for three years on Hawaii Five-0, returns to the island for a guest appearance on NCIS: Hawai’i. However, he will play a different character here.

Rather, Koale plays New Zealand intelligence officer David Sola in the NCIS: Hawai’i two-parter, which premieres January 24 on CBS. Sola comes to Hawaii to investigate a lead linking the death of Navy engineer Joseph Chan to a Chinese covert operation. Along the way, Sola finds out that the last person Chan met was Maggie Show (guest star Julie White). Maggie is a kind of mentor for team boss Jane Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) and has since been kidnapped.
At the beginning of January, “MacGyver” veteran Levy Tran was engaged for a guest appearance on “Magnum PI”, where the actress also embodies a new character (fernsehserien.de reported). Judging by several crossovers, the “NCIS” series, “Magnum, PI”, “Hawaii Five-0” and “MacGyver” actually play in the same series universe. However, CBS is currently trying to cut ties to series that have since been discontinued.
Beulah Koale, himself a New Zealand native, played the former Navy SEAL Junior Reigns, who did and didn’t approach Steve McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin), also a former SEAL, for the last three seasons of Hawaii Five-0 let loose. However, McGarrett insisted that he first graduate from the police academy. After the action drama ended, Koale also starred as Ice in the New Zealand miniseries The Panthers, set in 1974 Auckland and chronicling the rise of the civil rights movement in the country.
