Riesgraf will play Maxine Edwards, an infamous online gamer who still has bad blood with her Marine ex-boyfriend, who cheated her in more ways than one. When his dismembered fingertips and teeth are discovered in a pickpocket’s stolen purse, she naturally becomes one of NCIS’ suspects.
Luckily for Maxine, her gaming obsession piques the curiosity of fellow gamer McGee (Sean Murray), with whom she shares many common interests and a whole lot of chemistry.
Riesgraf, 32, is best known as adrenaline-junkie thief Parker on Leverage. She appeared alongside former fiancé Jason Lee on My Name Is Earl and in the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. Her other TV credits include guest roles on Without a Trace and Spin City.
NCIS airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on CBS. Riesgraf’s episode, titled “Killscreen,” is slated to air Feb. 22.
