‘NCIS: Los Angeles’ Star Daniela Ruah Has Already Launched Another Project
The drama is one of two projects Daniela Ruah lined up since NCIS: Los Angeles announced its upcoming series finale. The star is also hosting a Portuguese game show called Os Traidores, or The Traitors in English.
The actress shared the project with fans in March, and the first episode finally dropped this week. The unscripted show is an adaptation of Peacock’s The Traitors, which puts a group of 20 together in a castle. There is a group of traitors and a group of loyals, and the audience has no idea who the traitors are.
Each episode sees the contestants work through challenges and concludes with two eliminations. In one, the traitors “murder” someone by putting a note under their door. And the second comes when everyone makes a group vote.
At the end, if a traitor is left standing, their group gets to split a massive pot of money. If they are all voted off, the loyals get the pot.
As for NCIS: Los Angeles, the series is currently airing its final episodes after enjoying 14 years with the fan-favorite franchise. The finale will play out in two parts. The first part drops on Sunday, May 14, at 10/9 pm C. Part 2 follows on Sunday, May 21, at 9/8 C on CBS.
