NCIS Season 21 Mystery: Will Emily Wickersham Return as Eleanor Bishop? Get the Scoop!

Emily Wickersham, who portrayed Eleanor Bishop on NCIS, departed from the show, but her exit was orchestrated in a manner that leaves the door open for a potential comeback. Bishop staged her departure to embark on an undercover mission with Odette, Ziva’s former handler.

While the ongoing Hollywood strikes have cast uncertainty on her return for Season 21 by delaying production, the possibility of her coming back remains viable. In the last appearance, Torres, entangled in a complex history with Bishop, was seen in a tense situation, sparking speculation about Bishop intervening to prevent irreversible actions. Given the creative approach to her exit, Wickersham’s permanent departure appears unlikely.
