NCIS: Los Angeles has captivated viewers with its complex storylines and dramatic twists, and Season 14 promises to continue that trend. Executive Producer R. Scott Gemmill recently provided insights into the upcoming season, focusing on unresolved threads from Season 13.
As Season 13 wrapped up with significant developments—Callen (Chris O’Donnell) proposing to Anna (Bar Paly) and Kensi (Daniela Ruah) and Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) fostering Rosa (Natalia Del Riego)—fans were left with lingering questions. Notably, Hetty’s (Linda Hunt) mysterious mission in Syria and the ongoing threat of Kessler (Frank Military) were major concerns.
Hetty’s Mission and Its Fallout
Gemmill hinted at further exploration of Hetty’s operation in Syria, where she was involved in exposing a high-ranking mole within the Pentagon. This subplot will be a focal point in the new season. Hetty’s return to Syria, as revealed by Kilbride (Gerald McRaney), was aimed at resolving the situation but left her whereabouts uncertain. Fans can expect the team to undertake a mission to locate and rescue Hetty, with potential ties to past characters such as Paul Angelo (Daniel Henney).
Kessler’s Threat and Kensi and Deeks’ New Life
The menace of Kessler, who remains a looming threat, is set to be addressed in Season 14. With Kensi and Deeks now parents, the urgency to resolve Kessler’s threat is heightened. Gemmill assured that this storyline will be wrapped up soon, noting that the characters’ personal stakes add complexity to their ongoing conflicts.
Gerald McRaney’s Continued Role
Gerald McRaney’s portrayal of Kilbride has been a standout, and Gemmill confirmed that Kilbride will remain a key character in the upcoming season. His dynamic with the team and his commanding presence have made him a beloved figure on the show.
As NCIS: Los Angeles gears up for another season, fans can look forward to thrilling resolutions and deeper explorations of the characters’ most pressing issues
