Necar Zadegan, an alumna of NCIS: New Orleans, is set to star in CBS's upcoming drama series CIA. She will assume a lead role as the Chief of Station, a position previously held by Michael Michele. This casting follows a period of significant behind-the-scenes changes for the show, which recently paused production.
