Mark Harmon in a bodega in NCIS
The Big Picture There’s nothing audiences love more than a good ol’ prequel, as proven by shows like Taylor Sheridan’s 1923 and Young Sheldon, and now it’s time for fans of NCIS to get their very own origin story. This fall, CBS will drop a brand new series titled, NCIS: Origins, which will follow the now-retired Leroy Jethro Gibbs back in his early days before he’d grow into the special agent audiences became obsessed with for nearly two decades.
The short but sweet clip picks up with where we last saw Gibbs - enjoying a nice day out on the lake with his fishing pole in hand, hoping to catch a monster. And, that’s precisely where the teaser leaves us - pumped full of nostalgia but hanging on for the next look that will hopefully feature more information about the series or, at the very least, a look at Stowell as a young Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
In NCIS: Origins, audiences will meet the up-and-coming agent as he gets a fresh start as a special agent at the NCIS Camp Pendleton office. This won’t be the Gibbs that we’re used to seeing as the greenhorn will be cutting his teeth and learning the ropes alongside his mentor, Mike Franks, whose youthful version will be played by Kyle Schmid. Along with career and crime, the tale will also be one filled with romance when Gibbs lays his eyes on Mariel Molino’s Special Agent Lala Dominguez.
Mark Harmon’s Grand Goodbye After a whopping 18 years as one of the leading stars of NCIS, Mark Harmon bid the role of Leroy Jethro Gibbs adieu during the show’s 19th season back in 2021. Prior to his departure, rumors swirled that his character would simply appear in a lighter capacity than he had in previous seasons but after just four episodes, Harmon hung up his hat, with the series writing his character off into retirement in Alaska.
As of right now, NCIS: Origins hasn’t set a release date but stay tuned to Collider for more information.
