LL Cool J Does Own Stunts for NCIS: NY

LL Cool J, the star of the recently premiered NCIS: New York, shared that he personally handles the majority of his stunts for the NCIS universe. He estimates that 80 to 90 percent of the action sequences are performed by him, reserving complex or dangerous moments for stunt professionals like Brennan Dyson. LL attributes this dedication to his admiration for Bruce Lee, whose commitment to authenticity he strives to emulate.

To prepare for his role as Special Agent Sam Hanna, a character he originated in NCIS: Los Angeles in 2009, LL Cool J maintains a consistent fitness regimen. He remains unfazed by the demands of action scenes after 17 years, finding a unique way to unwind by focusing on the well-being of those around him rather than solely on himself. He plans to continue in the role as long as it remains fulfilling and enjoyable for the audience.
