NCIS will see the exit of Michael Weatherly at the end of this season. Many fans have wondered if the actor’s departure from the CBS series meant that Cote de Pablo would return. The pair and their almost relationship was a favorite of fans. With his exit, fans wanted Tony to leave and be with Ziva.
If Tony and Ziva could not be together on the show, at least they could walk off into the sunset together. That does not look like it will happen through. According to TV Line, Cote de Pablo revealed at an event promoting her latest project over the weekend that she would not appear on the finale for season 13.
However, Ziva will be mentioned in some way during Tony’s exit. Gary Glasberg, the executive producer of the series, said the following:
“You can’t have Tony leave the show and not get into that in some respect, so plan on it being discussed and handled, even if it’s in background.”
Are you surprised that Cote de Pablo is not returning for Weatherly’s exit from NCIS? Tell us what you think.
show was the absolute best with Ziva and Tony
I wish she had agreed to come back for the finale. Those two charactors were so good together. The fans would have been really pleased.
Didn’t they leave the door open for her to return in the future?
Love NCIS but something was missing after Ziva departure. I’m glad it’s being addressed but would of loved some sort of reunion on screen.
