EXCLUSIVE: Before Tony and Ziva return to TV screens, they’ll be hopping on a flight to French Riviera.
Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo, the pair who play former special agents Anthony DiNozzo and Ziva David in the upcoming NCIS: Tony and Ziva, will join Paramount Global for an informal press breakfast at MIPCOM next month.
Weatherly and de Pablo will also join Cohen, Paramount’s Chief Content Licensing Officer, on stage during his Media Mastermind interview on Tuesday, October 22.
The pair are starring in NCIS: Tony & Ziva, which picks up several years after the two characters reunited in an NCIS storyline. In the new show, they reunite to raise their daughter Tali (Isla Gie), who Tony has been fathering on his own, believing Ziva is dead. When Tony’s Paris-based security firm is attacked, they are forced to go on the run to figure out who’s after them, and whether they can trust each other again. Shooting is currently taking place in Budapest, Hungary.
The Paramount+ original series comes from CBS Studios and is being shopped at MIPCOM through Paramount Global Content Distribution.
The Tony and Ziva on-off relationship formed a major multi-season arc in the earlier era of CBS’s long-running crime procedural NCIS. De Pablo left the show in 2013 after 11 seasons, but unexpectedly returned in season 16 and 17. Weatherly left after 13 seasons, but returned earlier this year in an episode dedicated to Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard. David McCallum, who played Ducky, had passed away in 2023.
