NCIS star Michael Weatherly has sparked excitement among fans by hinting at a possible spin-off series. Weatherly, who played Tony DiNozzo until the Season 13 finale, recently reunited with Cote de Pablo, known for her role as Ziva David, for a special episode of Season 21 dedicated to the late NCIS star David McCallum.
Taking to Twitter, Weatherly shared a picture of himself with de Pablo, teasing the idea of a spin-off and asking fans for suggestions on what the series could be called. Fans eagerly responded with various ideas, with Weatherly revealing that his favorite suggestion, “NCIS: Beyond,” coincided with his daughters’ preference as well.
Meanwhile, in the NCIS universe, the cancellation of NCIS: Hawai’i after its third season left star Vanessa Lachey feeling “blindsided.” Despite fan disappointment over the cancellation, Lachey expressed gratitude for the support and love from viewers.
As the speculation around a potential spin-off continues, NCIS continues to air on CBS in the US, with its first 20 seasons available for streaming on Disney+ in the UK.
