Production
The series stars Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo reprising their roles as former NCIS special agents Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David, respectively, and marks their first time appearing together in 12 years since NCIS season 11 episode "Past, Present, and Future".The spin-off reunites the two characters and centers on the events that shaped their storyline in Europe. Weatherly was part of the original NCIS cast until his departure in 2016 but returned in 2024 for a special tribute episode honoring David McCallum, who portrayed Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard for 20 seasons, while de Pablo was a series regular from seasons 3 to 11 and made guest appearances in seasons 16 and 17.
It is the seventh series set within the NCIS universe—also referred to as the "NCIS-verse"—and the first developed exclusively for a streaming platform. In mid-June 2025, it was confirmed that the series would premiere on September 4, 2025.
The showrunner for NCIS: Tony & Ziva described the project as "an unconventional love story." Both Weatherly and de Pablo also served as executive producers on the series, which they had reportedly been developing for several years. The storyline opens by revisiting and explaining the reasons behind the characters' departure in the original series.
In mid-May 2024, the first official podcast of the NCIS universe, Off Duty: An NCIS Rewatch, premiered on Spotify. Hosted by de Pablo and Weatherly, the podcast revisits the show's most memorable episodes with behind-the-scenes commentary. In July 2025, de Pablo stated that she declined to have an intimacy coordinator on set with Weatherly – even though she was offered to have one – because she felt they have a lot of trust with each other as they are friends and didn't "want to be micromanaged".
On December 19, 2025, Paramount+ canceled the series after one season.
