Big Hint Dropped: Is Mark Harmon Making a Return to NCIS? Shocking Revelation!
Rocky Carroll, co-star of Mark Harmon on NCIS, expresses optimism about the return of the beloved character Leroy Gibbs, despite his final appearance in Season 19. Speculation arose around the show’s 450th episode, but Gibbs has yet to make a reappearance, leaving fans uncertain about his future on the series.
According to Movieguide, there’s a strong possibility that Mark Harmon will reprise his role, supported by NCIS creator Steven D. Binder’s determination for Gibbs’s comeback. Co-star Rocky Carroll, who played Leon Vance, believes that Gibbs, being a well-liked character, will inevitably make a return. Carroll states, “I think as long as this show stays on the air, there will always be a little bit of a tease that we might see Gibbs again,” expressing confidence in the character’s eventual return.
Binder shares Carroll’s sentiments, expressing a strong desire to bring Mark Harmon back into the NCIS storyline but emphasizes the importance of doing it right. Gibbs left the show after 19 years, opting for a peaceful life in Anchorage, Alaska. Binder wants to ensure that any return is justified, exploring the possibility of either embracing Gibbs’s new relaxed lifestyle or introducing a plot twist that challenges it.
While Mark Harmon’s departure disappointed fans just before the show’s 20th anniversary, they can still appreciate his continued involvement as an executive producer. The recent revelations from both Harmon’s co-star and the showrunner provide hope for fans eager to see Leroy Gibbs return for at least one more case.
Despite enjoying retirement in Alaska, the desire lingers among fans to witness Gibbs back in action, even if just for a brief cameo. NCIS and its spin-offs remain active, celebrating two decades of solving cases and maintaining high viewership figures. Harmon’s potential return adds an exciting element to the show’s ongoing narrative, keeping fans eagerly anticipating the next chapter in Leroy Gibbs’s story.
