Everything Former NCIS Actors Have Said About Returning to the Show: Pauley Perrette, Mark Harmon, and Others

NCIS has said goodbye to many stars over the years, whether it’s because their contract has expired or they’re ready to pursue other adventures – or sometimes cast members have left under slightly less pleasant circumstances, such as dissatisfaction with their storylines or feuds with other cast members.

Will these celebrities, however, ever make a comeback? Here’s what people have said…

Mark Harmon

Mark left the show in 2019, but his co-star Rocky Carroll believes he will return one day. In a Q&A with TV Insider, Rocky discussed the show’s 20th anniversary, saying, “We might see Gibbs again.” I believe that as long as this show is on the air, there will always be a hint that we might see Gibbs again… Gibbs serves as the moral compass. He’s the moral compass we’d all like to have.”

Cote de Pablo

While there are no current plans for Cote to return to the show, executive producer Steve Binder stated that he is always open to the possibility. “It’s always going to be, ‘Let’s not grab Cote and stick her in,'” he told TV Line. “It’s like, ‘Let’s first come up with a story and see if it’s something worthy of bringing that character back,'” he explained. “We’ve really played all of the cards there are to play [with Ziva], so we don’t have any plans right now,” he said, “but we’re certainly open to it.”

Michael Weatherly

Michael previously hinted that he and his co-star, Cote de Pablo, might return to the NCIS universe. On January 1, he wrote, “Happy New Year! It’s time to look at the clock and appreciate the present!”

“We all would rather look at you and Ziva reuniting and enjoying that moment,” a fan responded, prompting Michael to respond, “Stay tuned… for this could be an interesting year for such’moments’!” Interesting!

Pauley Perrette

Unfortunately, Pauley has stated unequivocally that she will never return to the series as Abby and has retired from acting. She tweeted about a falling out with Mark Harmon on set, saying, “NO I AM NOT COMING BACK!” EVER! (Would you please stop asking?) I’m terrified of Harmon and the possibility of him att4cking me. It gives me nightmares. I’ve got a new show that’s SAFE AND HAPPY! You’ll enjoy it! #HappyPlace “I adore you!” That’s the end of that fantasy!

Emily Wickersham

Emily’s character Eleanor Bishop left the show in 2021, and while the actress hasn’t spoken about a possible return, fans are optimistic! One person who asked for a cameo on Reddit wrote: “I honestly think she’ll come back eventually.” It’s not like she has a major beef with the producers.” We certainly hope so!
