Just as excitement was building around the newly launched NCIS spinoff, a bombshell has dropped—two of its lead stars are reportedly ready to walk away. While the spinoff had early promise and fan support, behind-the-scenes tensions are now threatening its future. Sources close to production say the two actors are unhappy with the show’s direction and feel misled about the creative vision.

The chemistry that once seemed so natural on screen has reportedly been strained by disagreements over script changes and character arcs. Insiders suggest that the actors feel their roles are being reduced or mishandled, and that the new show lacks the grounding that made the original NCIS so beloved. These frustrations have led to serious discussions about leaving altogether.

If the departures go through, it could deal a heavy blow to the momentum of the spinoff, which was meant to carry the NCIS legacy forward. Fans are left wondering: can the show survive without its top talent, or is this the beginning of the end for the newest chapter in the NCIS universe?
