CBS has released a new trailer for NCIS Season 22, teasing a major twist involving agent Nick Torres and honoring the late David McCallum, who portrayed the beloved Ducky Mallard.

NCIS fans, get ready!

The hit series is preparing for an explosive 22nd season, and it looks like agent Nick Torres (played by Wilmer Valderrama) is about to find himself in some dark and dangerous situations. A heart-pounding teaser trailer has just been unveiled, offering a glimpse of the intense drama set to unfold in the 2024-2025 season on CBS.

This season, the team faces a high-stakes mission to uncover a traitor hiding within their ranks. New team leader Alden Parker (Gary Cole) is in a race against time to expose the mole before catastrophe hits NCIS. “We’ve got to stop that mole without starting a war,” Parker tells Jessica Knight (Katrina Law), as reported by The Mirror.

Fans are in for a thrilling ride as the team confronts betrayal and danger like never before!

NCIS is on the hunt for a mole!

In a surprising twist, Jimmy Palmer (Brian Dietzen) and Kasie Hines (Diona Reasonover) find themselves entangled in a plot involving “a few favors and some light treason.” The trailer also teases intense gunfights, high-speed chases, and chilling crime scenes, all set to the powerful anthem “Stand Up.”

But the moment that has everyone buzzing? A cryptic line from Torres: “If you want me to kill one of my own, I need a good reason.”

Could NCIS be setting the stage for a shocking revelation where not only is an agent exposed as a traitor, but Torres is forced to consider taking their life in the upcoming season?

Fans are buzzing with excitement, predicting that Season 22 could be one of the most thrilling yet. One enthusiastic fan on Reddit wrote, “Well, holy f***, this season is gonna be more insane and full of holy f*** moments than any other. This has to top them all.”

On X (formerly Twitter), another fan shared their excitement: “Waking up from a nap to see one of the greatest NCIS trailers in a long time? What an experience!”

However, not all feedback was positive. Some fans voiced concerns over a recurring plotline. A Redditor pointed out, “Another mole? Guess it’s been a couple years since the last one,” and offered some advice: “They might want to improve their security measures and IT if they keep having moles.”

Did you catch the tribute to NCIS legend David McCallum?

Fans of the show may have noticed a heartfelt nod to the iconic character Donald ‘Ducky’ Mallard, portrayed by David McCallum, who sadly passed away in September last year. In the trailer, the pre-chorus of the anthem “Stand Up” subtly echoes McCallum’s jazz tune “The Edge,” famously sampled in Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s legendary hip-hop track, “The Next Episode.”

As NCIS gears up for its 22nd season, fans are expecting more hidden tributes to Ducky, along with the thrilling plot twists that will keep viewers hooked.

NCIS Season 22 premieres Monday, October 14 on CBS and will also be available to stream on Disney+.
