NCIS: New York Star Jennifer Beals Sheds Light On Robyn's Backstory — And Gushes About Her On-Screen Dog
NCIS: New York star Jennifer Beals gives us the scoop on her character Robyn Wells - and raves about her canine co-star.
Jennifer Beals has joined the NCIS franchise as a new star in the spin-off NCIS: New York, where she plays the character of Robyn Wells. Showrunner Byron Balasco sold her on the role by revealing that she would have a dog in the office, which ultimately tipped the scales in her decision. Beals, who had no prior knowledge of the NCIS franchise, admits she plays an attorney who was at the SDNY before leaving to join the team.
Robyn is supportive of her team but will draw the line when necessary and has a great sense of humor. She particularly respects her team member Sam Hanna and has a close friendship with her colleague Nick. Beals praises Robyn’s dog Sid, a Labrador/Staffordshire/pit bull terrier mix named Dunkin, who brings an amazing presence to the set, being photogenic and super smart.
