Michael Weatherly has just ignited the NCIS fandom with an electrifying revelation about the future of the Tony and Ziva saga. In a recent interview, he opened up about how some of the original NCIS cast members may be joining forces with the duo in upcoming episodes — and fans can hardly contain their excitement. His comments hinted at a crossover-style reunion that could blend classic NCIS energy with the high-octane storyline Tony and Ziva are leading.
Weatherly revealed that producers have been quietly exploring ways to bring back familiar faces in meaningful roles, not just quick cameos. That means long-standing characters could reappear to help drive a plotline tied to Tony and Ziva’s current mission, potentially reconnecting the dots between NCIS’s past and its future. This move signals a major shift for the franchise, suggesting it’s ready to honor its roots while pushing into bold, new territory.
Cote de Pablo added fuel to the fire by teasing on social media that “family never really leaves,” a nod to the enduring bond between the original cast and the fans. The promise of these beloved characters reuniting on-screen with Tony and Ziva has already sparked a wave of speculation about who might be first to return — Gibbs, McGee, or perhaps even Abby in some capacity.
The buzz around this potential reunion is setting up what could be one of the most emotional and thrilling NCIS events ever. With so much secrecy surrounding the project, fans are now counting down the days until the show drops its next big bombshell — one that could finally give the franchise the ultimate nostalgic payoff.
