NCIS Season 24 Shocks Fans With Michael Weatherly’s Epic Return
The wait is finally over — Tony DiNozzo is coming back to NCIS!
CBS has confirmed a major cast shakeup for NCIS Season 24, with fan-favorite star Michael Weatherly returning as Special Agent Tony DiNozzo. The announcement has sent longtime viewers into a frenzy, as many have been hoping to see Tony back with the team since his departure nearly a decade ago.
Weatherly originally starred on NCIS for 13 seasons before leaving the show in 2016. Although he made a surprise cameo in Season 21, fans continued to wonder if his return would ever become permanent.
Now, that wish has officially come true. The NCIS official Instagram account shared the exciting news on July 1, welcoming Weatherly back with the message: “We’ve missed this one. Welcome back, old friend!”
Fans immediately flooded the comments with excitement, celebrating the return of one of the franchise’s most beloved characters.
“YES! I’ve been waiting for this day since he left!” one fan wrote, while another added, “I can’t wait for Tony to come home!”
According to reports, Weatherly’s return will reportedly be part of a season-long storyline, leaving fans wondering what role Tony will play in the future of the NCIS team. Some viewers are already speculating that he could even step into a major leadership position.
But Tony DiNozzo isn’t the only legendary character making a comeback. Mark Harmon will also return as Leroy Jethro Gibbs in a season-long arc for NCIS: Origins Season 3, which premieres this fall on CBS.
With two iconic NCIS characters returning, Season 24 is shaping up to be one of the most exciting chapters in the franchise’s history.
