Gibbs and Franks out in the woods during an emotional scene in NCIS Origins
NCIS: Origins is poised for another casting change in season 2, as it seems that a key character might not be returning. In the latest trailer for the show, shared via TV Insider, there's a possibility that Mary Jo could be leaving the unit.
In the first scene of the season finale trailer, Woody rushes Gibbs and Randy into the lab. Phil asks, "Is Mary Jo transferring to Barrett’s office?" Gibb replies,"We’re trying to stop it,” Gibbs says. While fans will not find out if Mary Jo actually leaves the show until the show's air date on Tuesday, March 24, in the previous trailer for the season finale, there is insight about Diane Sterling. She will be doing a part-time role with the unit as a criminal investigator with the Internal Revenue Service , but will keep her romance with Gibbs as she looks to be having some date nights on the weekend. The CBS synopsis for the season finale episode is: “When the NCIS Regional Director tries to transfer Mary Jo , she reconnects with an old friend from Atlantic City to help investigate the roadside deaths of two Marines.” While Mary Jo's NCIS: Origins character is in limbo at the moment, there might be some surprises still in store for fans later. “We just adore them, and we knew it would be a treat to see them later on,” Origins executive producer David J. North told TV Insider. “Also for us on Origins, Gina and I have a plan for certain of our characters, and in some, we don’t want to give away whether they’re still around or alive in 33 years because we want to stick with the plan that we have.” In the original series, Mark Harmon, who played Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, left NCIS in season 19, episode 4 . He now narrates the prequel and is an executive producer for the original series. As for Mary Jo, she is played by Tyla Abercrumbie, who has been part of the prequel series since the first episode debuted in 2024. The character's potential departure would mark a significant shift for the overall series and the team dynamics that have been in play since the show began.
