We’ll start with Boom Boom, who was the first of the two bomb experts to show up. He was in the second episode of the series, and quickly made a mark. Of course, Boom Boom is just a nickname. The character’s full name is Norman Gates.

There is a chance we’ll see Boom Boom again. While we wait, where can you see the actor?

Sherif Atkins plays the role on the NCIS spin-off series. You’ll recognize him from a few different TV shows over the years, including ER. He played Michael Gallant on the medical drama throughout a few seasons.

He has also appeared in White Collar and Queen of the South. And if you’re looking for him in movies, you’ll see him in a small role in Guardians of the Galaxy. He was a Nova pilot in the movie. Not a large role, but one that he’ll be proud of.
