Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT NCIS could uphold a fascinating 21-year franchise trend with its upcoming Tony and Ziva spinoff. The new series will reintroduce flagship NCIS characters Anthony DiNozzo and Ziva David sometime in late 2024 or early 2025. Filming is scheduled to begin in summer 2024 in Budapest and other locations around Europe.
NCIS Should Launch Its Tony & Ziva Spinoff As A Backdoor Pilot And It's A Serious Possibility Close One of the most exciting possibilities for the Tony and Ziva spinoff is that it could be launched in the flagship series. It feels obvious that the characters should return to NCIS, since that's where they both got their start. Michael Weatherly was with the cast from its origin and Ziva joined the franchise in NCIS season 3.
If the Tony & Ziva spinoff decides to go in this direction, it wouldn't be too surprising since DiNozzo made a surprise NCIS return in NCIS season 21. Michael Weatherly also seemingly confirmed that Cote de Pablo would return in NCIS season 21 earlier this year after his appearance on the flagship. When de Pablo failed to appear in the previous season, it made the chances of her return to the main series in NCIS season 22 all the more likely.
NCIS continued the trend when it introduced NCIS: New Orleans in NCIS season 11, episodes 18, "Crescent City Part I," and 19, "Crescent City Part II." The episodes introduced the cast of NCIS: New Orleans, with Scott Bakula as Dwayne Cassius Pride, the Special Agent in Charge of the New Orleans field office. The spinoff aired for seven seasons, but ultimately, it was the first NCIS series to end in 2021.
