Tom Cruise Surprises Cast of NCIS: Origins with On-Set Visit

Hollywood actor Tom Cruise made an unexpected visit to the set of CBS’s popular series NCIS: Origins on October 15, 2023. The 63-year-old star’s appearance delighted the cast and crew, as he offered support and shared invaluable advice during his time on set.
Executive producer David J. North confirmed the visit through social media, expressing excitement about Cruise’s presence. He shared, “As we kick off a new season of Origins, it was awesome to have @tomcruise stop by yesterday to hang out and show so much support to our show and the entire @ncisverse.” North also revealed that the bar featured in the series, known as Daly’s, was inspired by the bar from Cruise’s famous film, Top Gun.
In an interview with TVInsider, North described the experience as exhilarating for both the crew and cast. He noted, “He was just incredibly supportive of the show and the franchise.” The producers took Cruise to the set for dailies, where he expressed interest in seeing the bar, which North and co-producer Gina Lucita Monreal had designed to echo the iconic setting from Top Gun.
During his visit, Cruise also took the time to mentor Caleb Foote, who plays the character Randy. Foote inquired about Cruise’s experience with performing stunts, particularly how he manages to avoid injuries. Cruise’s response was straightforward: “I don’t worry about breaking a nail,” illustrating his fearless approach to action sequences.
CBS shared a photo on their social media platforms, captioned, “A VIP on set! ✨👏 While on the @paramountco lot, Tom Cruise stopped by the set of NCIS: Origins to say hi!” This friendly interaction highlights Cruise’s ongoing support for the entertainment industry and his fellow actors.
The second season of NCIS: Origins has recently premiered, picking up from the cliffhanger finale of the previous season. The season opener revealed the fate of Mariel Molino‘s character, Lala, after a dramatic car crash that left viewers eager for answers. Fans are now anticipating what else the new season will bring and which guest stars may make appearances.
Cruise’s surprise visit not only energized the cast but also served as a reminder of the camaraderie present in the film and television industry, particularly among those involved in long-running franchises like NCIS. As the series continues to evolve, the support from established stars such as Cruise can inspire both the cast and their audience.
