Well, Dick Wolf, you got us. Not that we should be surprised. Tom Ellis and Nick Gehlfuss? We figured this was going to work for us since we heard those names. Ellis was always absolutely captivating as Lucifer. And Gehlfuss was one of our favorite doctors on Chicago Med. We were just waiting to see if the two would click. And boy, do they.
You know that opposites attract thing? Well, it seems like opposites make for good partners, too. Or at least that’s what CIA is banking on. And we gotta say we’re intrigued.
The description for the show reads: “When by-the-book FBI Special Agent Bill Goodman (Nick Gehlfuss) is loaned out to a clandestine CIA/FBI task force, he finds himself teamed up with secretive and roguish CIA case officer Colin Glass (Tom Ellis). Together they will work covert operations in New York, uncovering international plots, terrorist cells, and geopolitical secrets. On CIA, Bill will learn the rules of this murky world on the fly as Colin leads him deeper into spy games where only one thing is clear — their work keeps America safe, even if no one will ever know what they did in the shadows. Necar Zadegan and Natalee Linez also star.”
You can check out the first look at the show, which premieres Monday, February 23, below:
