The NCIS Los Angeles cast is rumored to be diminished before season 8 ends. Miguel Ferrer and Daniela Ruah are reportedly going to leave the series. Fans are worried that Ferrer and Ruah will leave the show. Both actors' play characters that are important for the series- if they leave it will be a heartbreaking moment for the fans of the hit police drama.
NCIS Los Angeles Cast Rumors and Spoilers
The rumors about the departure of the two actors started after NCIS Los Angeles cast member, LL Cool J, stated that somebody is going to die in season 8. In an interview, the actor who plays the role of Sam Hanna, stated that somebody will not be able to see the end of season 8. This prompted fans to tune in and see the fate of the characters.
The two possible contenders for the NCIS Los Angeles cast exit are Ruah and Ferrer. Both characters have been in a tight spot in the series. Moreover, their personal lives have some issues going on, which could cause the two actors to leave the show.
Ruah's character, Kensi Blye, met her demise during a dangerous mission in Syria. The NCIS team's helicopter was shot by a Syrian mercenary, crashing the chopper on land. The other members were able to get out safely. Unfortunately, Kensi was trapped under the copter's debris. She slipped into a comatose state. In the recent episodes of the series, Kensi woke up from coma but it seemed like she might have a serious injury which could affect her mobility.
In real life, the NCIS Los Angeles cast member gave birth to her daughter. She is on maternity leave, that's why she had to be put into a comatose state. The latest episode showed her recovery from coma although she seemed to have some serious injury in her mobility. The show runners have not mentioned that the actress will be removed from the story line, so it is safe to say that Ruah will remain on the show.
Ferrer's character, Owen Granger, is also rumored to be leaving the show. Ferrer's leadership is hanging on the balance and is leaning to a tight spot with his superiors after he ordered an airstike on Syrian soil. Owen ordered the strike to obliterate the enemies closing in on Kensi's team. Aside from his on-screen difficulties, reports surfaced, stating that the actor suffered from a stroke. His father, Jose Ferrer suffered from colon cancer before which fueled the rumors about the actor's health problem. However, there is no truth to the speculations. Ferrer is alive and kicking as he often posts photos of his activities on social media. Like Ruah, Ferrer is still part of the NCIS Los Angeles cast members unless the show runners have officially announced that he is out of commission.
