Michael Weatherly, famed for his role as Tony DiNozzo on NCIS, hinted at a possible reunion with his former co-star Cote de Pablo, who played Ziva David, during his recent return to the show.
Weatherly’s return coincided with a tribute episode dedicated to the late David McCallum, who played Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard. Sharing a behind-the-scenes moment with NCIS: Los Angeles star Daniela Ruah, who was directing, Weatherly expressed his excitement about being back on set.
Fans instantly caught up on the hint, with one expressing a desire to reunite with de Pablo. How did Weatherly respond? “The universe works in mysterious ways.”
This isn’t the first time Weatherly has teased fans about a potential reunion. Last year, he hinted at exciting developments in store for “moments” between Tony and Ziva.
Weatherly’s recent cameo in an episode honoring McCallum’s character was welcomed with joy by fans, who were thrilled to see Tony DiNozzo back on screen, if only for a little minute.
Weatherly left NCIS in 2016, citing a need for change and new challenges. His return has sparked speculation among fans about what surprises might be in store for the beloved characters of Tony and Ziva.
