NCIS: LOS ANGELES Co-Stars Daniela Ruah and Natalia Del Riego To Star In Upcoming Movie ...AND THEN SHE WAS GONE

"NCIS: Los Angeles" actresses Daniela Ruah and Natalia del Riego, who played mother and daughter in the CBS show, are set to reteam for the upcoming movie "…And Then She Was Gone" based on the novel "The Moonlight Child" by Karen McQuestion. Ruah will also executive produce. The film is directed by TV helmer Tawnia McKiernan ("Criminal Minds", "Supergirl", "The Cleaning Lady") from a script by Justin Kohlas.

The story follows a former foster child, nineteen-year-old Niki, adjusting to a new way of life in the home of Sharon Lemke. When they notice a mysterious girl in the house next door, the duo investigate and reveal a haunting truth.

"…And Then She Was Gone" will start filming in fall 2026. Christian Hall is producing for Two Independent Eyes. Kohlas will executive-produce under his KimberMark production banner. Riccardo Maddalosso ("Armageddon Time") is also executive-producing.

Here's what Daniela Ruah had to say about the project: "I was immediately drawn to both McQuestion's book and Justin’s screenplay — he has such a wonderful instinct for keeping us on our toes as the plot unfolds. Having worked together for over a decade, I'm very excited to continue telling great stories with Justin, this time in a new role".

McKiernan added: "I immediately fell in love with this book, and the way Justin has adapted it for the screen feels like a slice of Hitchcockian heaven. When Daniela and Natalia came aboard, both actors I've had the pleasure of directing before, I didn't hesitate. With this creative team in place, I knew I had to be part of it.".

McQuestion also commented saying: "I am grateful to the readers who made The Moonlight Child such a huge success and I'm excited for the opportunity to see the story evolve as a feature film".

Ruah is coming off a 14-year run on the hit CBS drama series "NCIS: Los Angeles", and she recently starred in the Portuguese-language HBO Max limited series "O Grito". She is lining up a growing development slate under her production banner Merkaba Films.

Natalia del Riego most recently starred in the Netflix series "The Abandons". Her 2023 feature "Hail Mary" debuted at SXSW and was executive-produced by Keanu Reeves.

Kohlas was a writer on "NCIS: Los Angeles" where he met Ruah. He’s currently developing "The Ledge: An Adventure Story of Friendship and Survival On Mount Rainier" by Jim Davidson and Kevin Vaughan with Unreasonable Studios and producers Evan Hayes ("Free Solo") and MJ Grogan. Kohlas' most recent film "Hide" had its world premiere at Screamfest last fall.
