Stay tuned to Screen Rant for the latest buzz from the NCIS universe. In a recent chat with Deadline, CBS Studios President David Stapf shared some intriguing updates about the possibility of Pauley Perrette returning as Abby Sciuto. While he acknowledged that bringing back Abby, a beloved character, is not off the table, he also clarified that there are no current plans for her return.
Pauley Perrette’s departure from NCIS was surrounded by controversy, which complicates the idea of her comeback. Despite this, the show has managed to subtly reference Abby in a tribute episode for Dr. Mallard, hinting at her ongoing connection to the team and potentially setting the stage for her return.
One exciting prospect is that Abby could make a return in NCIS: Europe. Given her strong connections and history with characters like Dr. Mallard, there’s speculation that she could be recruited to assist Tony and Ziva in their new European adventures.
However, it’s worth noting that Perrette has previously expressed reluctance to return to NCIS due to reported conflicts with former co-star Mark Harmon. With Harmon’s role in the main series now diminished, the dynamics have changed. Six years have passed since Perrette’s departure, leading fans to wonder if her stance might have evolved and if there’s a chance for Abby’s return.
As the NCIS universe continues to expand, the potential return of Pauley Perrette as Abby Sciuto remains an exciting possibility. Whether through NCIS: Europe or a special appearance on the main series, the idea of Abby’s comeback adds an intriguing layer to the evolving world of NCIS.
