Fans of NCIS were sent into a frenzy after Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo—better known as Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David—sat down for a recent interview and revealed jaw-dropping details about their upcoming spinoff. What was originally expected to be a simple reunion series has now taken a surprising turn, with the duo confirming that the storyline will be far more intense, emotional, and unexpected than anyone anticipated.
During the interview, Weatherly and de Pablo teased that the show won’t just be a continuation of their characters’ romance or family life in Europe. “People think they know where Tony and Ziva are now,” Weatherly said, “but this show will challenge everything you thought you knew about them.” Cote de Pablo added that the series will dig deep into the “unfinished business” of their past, with new threats, old enemies, and a storyline that “raises the stakes in ways fans have never seen.”
Perhaps the biggest bombshell? The spinoff won’t be confined to one country—or even one storyline. The pair hinted at a globe-trotting plot involving international espionage, secrets from Ziva’s Mossad days, and a mission that puts their daughter Tali at the center of it all. “This isn’t just a family drama,” de Pablo noted. “It’s a spy thriller, a love story, and a fight for survival—rolled into one.”
With production already underway and more surprises promised in the months ahead, longtime fans are bracing for what could be one of the most explosive NCIS chapters yet. If this interview is any indication, Tony and Ziva’s return won’t just meet expectations—it’ll blow them out of the water.
