As a cinephile with a penchant for police procedurals and a soft spot for Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David, I must say, I am thoroughly excited about the upcoming spin-off of NCIS: Tony & Ziva. After their heartwarming yet abrupt departure from the original series, it’s refreshing to see them reunited once more. The fact that this new adventure will take place on a different timeline, filling in some gaps left by the original series, is an intriguing twist indeed.
Enthusiasts of the long-running CBS police drama NCIS were delighted when a spinoff that had been in development for years was finally unveiled. Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo, who left the original series, are reuniting for a brand new NCIS escapade. The spinoff is titled NCIS: Tony & Ziva, focusing on their exploits across Europe. Details about the series have been scarce, but recent developments suggest an unexpected change in the show’s timeline.
As reported by Deadline, the upcoming spin-off of NCIS: Tony & Ziva is set to unfold on a distinct timeline separate from the original show. Unlike its predecessor, this spin-off will delve into the past, providing additional context for viewers who may recall when Ziva was believed deceased and Tony discovered he had an unaware daughter. The series will focus on the events that transpired when Tony and Ziva were eventually reconnected several years ago.
In the timeframe of “NCIS: Tony & Ziva” nearly a decade old, there’s an exciting array of characters who could make appearances on the show. Fans might catch glimpses of Gibbs (Mark Harmon) working with two of his beloved ex-agents, or maybe even persuade Pauley Perrette to return from retirement to reprise her memorable character Abby Sciuto. During a MIPCOM appearance, Pablo spoke about collaborating with Weatherly once more, hinting at the new timeline and explaining why it was crucial for telling the story of Tony & Ziva.
It’s been seven years since we last encountered these characters, and it seems the fans have been eagerly waiting for updates on their story. In our upcoming season, we’ll finally provide some insights into what transpired between them.
The NCIS Universe Continues To Expand
In the universe of NCIS, there have been multiple cancellations, affecting locations like Los Angeles, New Orleans, and Hawaii. However, it seems that this franchise is experiencing a fresh era of creativity. Apart from the spin-off featuring Tony and Ziva, the original NCIS series has reached its 22nd season, and a new prequel series focusing on a young Gibbs is currently airing. Despite speculation about the franchise’s future just a few years ago, the updated lineup demonstrates otherwise, weaving stories set in various time periods.
During the discussion on the upcoming series, Weatherly added his thoughts, offering viewers a glimpse into the reasoning behind shooting scenes in various European locations. He expressed a wish for the program to have a “worldwide, universal vibe”, and shared that settings such as Budapest contribute significantly to achieving this global feel.
