Michael Weatherly is heading back to NCIS, and Tony DiNozzo’s latest visit to his former team will turn into something much bigger.
Weatherly will return for a season-long arc in season 24, beginning with the Oct. 6 premiere. Tony heads to Washington, D.C., while expanding his thriving security business after the events of the Paramount+ spinoff NCIS: Tony & Ziva.
In an interview with TV Insider, executive producer Steven D. Binder teased what happens when Tony reconnects with his former team.
“While trying to drum up new clients for his upstart satellite office, an old contact of Tony’s picks up some chatter involving NCIS. Tony is, of course, intrigued and decides to pay his old friends a surprise visit,” Binder teased. “Unfortunately, the reunion quickly goes sideways, and Tony finds himself in the middle of a five-alarm fire.”
Tony’s role in resolving that crisis catches the attention of Pentagon officials, who decide they could use more of DiNozzo. The opportunity arrives at the right time, since Tony already has personal reasons for remaining in the area.
Binder explained, “Luckily, since Tony was planning on staying in D.C. to be closer to his daughter, he’s more than happy to oblige.”
The new connection with the Pentagon helps set up Weatherly’s season-long arc following his initial reunion with the NCIS team.
Tony and Ziva ended NCIS: Tony & Ziva back together with the approval of their daughter, Tali. But while Tony spends time in Washington, Ziva is staying closer to their daughter.
“In our universe, Tali is now a few hours away in boarding school, and Ziva is there with her,” Binder stated. “Whether or not her path will cross with our agents in D.C. is still an ongoing question — but rest assured, her presence will definitely be felt!”
Cote de Pablo has not been announced for an appearance on NCIS season 24. For now, the storyline allows Tony to remain in Washington while Ziva stays near Tali, leaving open the question of whether the characters could eventually cross paths again.
Weatherly’s extended return begins when NCIS premieres Tuesday, Oct. 6, on CBS.
