Who Plays Joy Aaronson On NCIS?

August 2024 · 2 minute read

It seems safe to assume that several people watching the “Bridges” episode of “NCIS” probably recognized the woman playing Joy Aaronson because she made her presence known in some pretty substantial titles throughout her career. That actress is none other than Rachel Ticotin, who is probably most known for her parts in big movies like “Total Recall,” “Falling Down,” “Con Air,” and “Man on Fire.” Ticotin has been in the industry for some time, with credits dating back to the early ’80s (via IMDb). Her performance as Joy Aaronson on “NCIS” is arguably another fine addition to her list of credits. In its recap of the exciting episode, Entertainment Weekly not only commended the show’s strong start for kicking off 2023 but also revealed how much they enjoyed the back-and-forth between Ticotin and Cole’s characters with the outlet, indicating that it hopes there is more to come from the enticing pair’s will-they-won’t-they storyline.

“NCIS” is by no means the actress’s foray into the small screen. Of her many accomplishments, Ticotin has had a central role in the series “Law & Order: LA,” as well as appearances in shows such as “The Act,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Lost,” and “Blue Bloods.” And this isn’t even her debut in the “NCIS” shared universe. In 2012 Ticotin played a savvy political player named Monica Tenez in the episode “Dead Body Politic” (via Yahoo). It is no question she is a seasoned player.
