This Veterans Day, NCIS fans will reunite with a familiar face. Mark Harmon is returning as Leroy Jethro Gibbs in a powerful crossover between NCIS and NCIS: Origins.
Gibbs famously left for Alaska four years ago, seeking peace and solitude. Now, a reopened case ties the past to the present — and gives viewers a glimpse into where life has taken him.
Producers hint that Gibbs’ quiet existence may have changed. “Let’s just say Gibbs is no longer alone,” they teased.
Harmon expressed pride in the storytelling of Origins and said he hopes fans enjoy seeing Gibbs again. For longtime viewers, it’s a rare and meaningful moment to revisit one of television’s most enduring characters.
The special airs Nov. 11 on CBS.
