Many NCIS fans are anxiously awaiting the return of Michael Weatherly to the series. He will join Cote de Pablo for the spinoff series NCIS: Tony & Ziva on Paramount+ in 2025. Weatherly has also shown off his impressive weight loss as they are shooting the season.

Here is a look at how much weight the actor has lost in anticipation of his big NCIS return.

Michael Weatherly Loses 35 Pounds For NCIS Return

Michael Weatherly knew he would have a lot more running around and action scenes in NCIS: Tony & Ziva than when he was on his last show, the legal drama Bull. As a result, he knew it was time to lose some weight. The results are impressive.

When you have a successful series that’s lasted as long as NCIS, you naturally have cast turnovers for different reasons. Often, the actors leave to pursue other roles.

But while they may move on with their lives, dedicated fans cling to the memory of their characters and celebrate when we get a reunion.

Tony and Ziva Get Their Own Show

Fans learned the news of the two latest NCIS spinoffs in early 2024. NCIS: Origins will air alongside the original NCIS series in the Fall 2024 TV lineup.

Bull Durham is arguably one of the best sports movies of all time, albeit with a strong romantic angle. In the film, Kevin Costner stars as Lawrence “Crash” Davis, a veteran minor-league baseball player recruited by the Durham Bulls. Susan Sarandon stars opposite Costner as Annie Savoy, who develops feelings for Crash.

One of the most memorable scenes from the film is the kitchen counter love scene, which showcases the passion and chemistry between the lead pair. While the scene existed in the script, it was nowhere near as impactful as one suggestion from Costner ended up making it. Here is what Costner changed for the scene and how it made all the difference in the world.

Robert De Niro has been one of Hollywood’s most critically and commercially successful actors. Thanks to his acting skills and collaborations with director Martin Scorsese, he has an extremely well-decorated filmography. But, when his Heat co-star Al Pacino chose Raging Bull as his favorite De Niro film, the choice surprised most fans.

Al Pacino and the Taxi Driver star have been frequent collaborators and seen together in 4 films yet: The Godfather: Part II, Heat, Righteous Kill, and The Irishman. When Robert De Niro was asked about his favorite Pacino film, he could not think about anything but The Godfather I and II. However, hardly anybody expected Pacino to name De Niro’s 1980 sports drama as his favorite.

There have been a lot of comings and goings in Port Charles as of late. General Hospital has seen a number of cast members return, while other fan favorites have been booted from the soap. One of the latest additions to the soap opera’s cast was Sawandi Wilson, who is playing the role of Dr. Isaiah Gannon. Who is the new doctor and could he be related to the Gannons of Llanview? Here is what we know so far.

Sawandi Wilson Goes From John Doe To Isaiah Gannon

Viewers may have noticed that a new name was added to the closing credits on General Hospital Friday. The September 6 credits rolled and as the contract players’s names were shown Sawandi Wilson caught the eye of many. He is listed as playing the character Dr. Isaiah Gannon.

Jason Morgan (portrayed by Steve Burton) was the first person to introduce Isaiah to viewers.

As expected, newcomer Sawandi Wilson (“Star Trek: Discovery”) has joined the cast of “General Hospital” as a contract player. He first appeared on the Monday, August 26 episode of the ABC drama series.

According to the end credits shown on Friday, September 6, Wilson’s character’s full name is Dr. Isaiah Gannon, a last name familiar to fans of the defunct “One Life to Live,” leaving many questioning if the character has ties to Llanview.

Thus far, the character had been imprisoned at the same refugee camp as Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson), but later escaped and made his way to Port Charles.

Shortly after leaving the airport, Isaiah found himself hit by a car during a struggle between Linda Boyle (Amor Owens) and Ava Jerome (Maura West). He was later transported to General Hospital thanks to Jason (Steve Burton) calling for emergency services.

After 30 years, Oliver Stone knows when to admit he was wrong.

The Academy Award-winning writer and director recently reminisced about working with a 27-year-old Robert Downey Jr., who was admittedly under the influence during the majority of filming, on the 1994 crime romance Natural Born Killers.

Stone recalled directing the actor in the final scene for a recent oral history by Esquire, revealing it was Downey’s idea to dip the front tails of his white shirt in fake blood and pull it through his pants zipper. “Oh come on—that’s too much! You’re going too far, Robert,” he told Downey of the bloody innuendo.

“You’re ruining my movie! Forget the dumb dick idea. This isn’t… This isn’t some slapstick bull—,” added Stone.

Downey, who happened to be sober on this day of filming, relented and pulled his shirt back through the zipper. “Wait, wait—wait a second.

Suits is one of the best and most popular legal dramas that managed to make the profession of lawyer cool again. Created by Aaron Korsh, the USA Network series follows Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), who has a photographic memory and joins Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) at a prestigious law firm. The only problem with that is Mike didn’t actually go to law school and he doesn’t have a degree about which he has to lie to everyone. Suits ran for 9 brilliant seasons and ended its run in 2019. So, if you loved the witty banter, high stakes, and compelling characters in Suits here are some similar brilliant shows you should check out next.

The return of General Hospital‘s Jonathan Jackson includes the introduction of a brand new character, a mysterious doctor named Isaiah. Lucky and Isaiah are currently in a sticky situation involving a crime lord. Their main goal right now is to make their escape. That’s actor Sawandi Wilson, who plays the medicine man.

The Doctor is In

Deadline broke the news of this key casting. Since Isaiah’s first appearance earlier this week, he’s patched Lucky up and punched him. Of course, that was after the wayward Spencer played Russian Roulette with his life. There’s no word on how long Wilson will be around. But the hospital certainly needs fresh new blood with Michael Easton’s departure from the show.

So, hopefully, Dr. Isaiah will head back to Port Charles with Lucky when it is time for the big brother to save his comatose little sister, Lulu.

Dusty (Hirsch) has deliberately structured his life, through meditation, yoga, boxing, nutrition, and hygiene, to create a clean and safe environment. But what happens when Dusty’s flawless system fails? Out comes Woozy, a horrifying apparition who torments Dusty.

Like their titular characters, Angel was Buffy’s older counterpart. The spin-off, which turns 25 this year, took its parent show’s supernatural lore out of a school setting and into the big, bad city. While bright, cheery Sunnydale provided an ironic contrast to the demonic action in its shadows, Los Angeles was its shadows. As Angel’s running joke goes, the city was a sordid hotbed of evil and monstrous behaviour even before the Satanic cults and vampires got a look-in.

There is, however, a line, and in its second ever episode, Angel crossed it.

After the pilot introduced the vision-afflicted Doyle, re-introduced Buffy character Cordelia, and set up Angel Investigations’ “We Help the Helpless” premise, it was time to set the show’s adult tone and shake off Buffy’s residual cheerleader vibes. How better to do that than with an episode about crack addiction and sex work?

Chicago – The power of performance is on unique display in “Sing Sing,” expanding in theaters this August. It’s directed/co-adapted by Greg Kwedar and features the consummate Colman Domingo. The film is set in the infamous prison, as the incarcerated become a troupe of actors, and how it changes their lives.

Divine G (Colman Domingo) is imprisoned in New York State’s Sing Sing, and finds purpose by acting in a theatre group alongside other men who are also incarcerated. Their acting coach/play director (Paul Raci) is a patient mentor, but some troupe members – like “Divine Eye” (Clarence Maclin) – are going to have a rockier path towards interpreting this variation of Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.”

NCIS stars Michael Weatherly and Mark Harmon had a relationship not too unlike their characters Tony Dinozzo and Leroy Gibbs. Weatherly felt Harmon especially shared this common trait with his NCIS counterpart.

Michael Weatherly felt Mark Harmon was like Gibbs in 1 way Mark Harmon and Michael Weatherly | Sonja Flemming/Getty Images

Weatherly and Harmon had different but complementary personalities. Weatherly typically had a more outgoing presence both on NCIS and behind-the-scenes. Harmon, however, was more reserved and professional. But Harmon’s characteristics served Gibbs well, who was written to have a very quiet strength. So much so that the writers felt like Gibbs was one of the hardest NCIS characters to write for.

“On other shows, the lead actor is always counting his lines. But I remember when I first got to NCIS [in 2005], figuring out how to write that character was so complicated. You would type what you think is very little,...

Tony Dinozzo, played by Michael Weatherly, became a fan favorite during his years on NCIS. Now, almost a decade after his departure from the original show, a spin-off, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, is coming to Paramount+.

The new project does not yet have a release date, but it is known that it will be released in the second half of 2024.

Here are nine projects starring Michael Weatherly to help you pass the time.

1. Bull, 2016-2022

Dr. Jason Bull is the charming founder of a successful trial consulting firm. He and his team use science and intuition to understand attorneys, witnesses, and defendants and create trial scenarios that help their clients win.

Michael Weatherly's Dr. Bull falls somewhere between Lie to Me's Dr. Lightman and The Mentalist's Patrick Jane. From the former, he takes an (almost) scientific approach to "reading" people — whether they are lying or telling the truth.

On Monday June 24 2024, Nickelodeon broadcasts Peppa Pig!

Mr. Bull Is Getting Married; Getting Ready for a Wedding; The Wedding Day; Party Bus; Families Season 8 Episode Summary

In this episode of “Peppa Pig” titled “Mr. Bull Is Getting Married; Getting Ready for a Wedding; The Wedding Day; Party Bus; Families,” viewers are in for a delightful treat. The storyline revolves around Mr. Bull and Mrs. Cow’s upcoming wedding. The characters are bustling with excitement as they prepare for the big day. From choosing outfits to decorating, everyone is involved in making the event special.

As the wedding day finally arrives, the town is abuzz with joy and anticipation. The ceremony promises to be a heartwarming affair filled with love and happiness. Meanwhile, Peppa receives a special invitation to Candy Cat’s birthday party, adding an extra layer of fun and celebration to the day’s events.

Hidetaka Miyazaki’s games are all set in vastly different universes, but they will all feature some references to each other. One of the most enduring of these references is the Moonlight Greatsword, which has appeared in almost every FromSoftware game.

Can destiny be formed by the actors we admire on the big screen? For Michael Weatherly, the actor with a current net worth of $45 million, the answer is a booming ‘yes’! His role as Tony Dinozzo on the popular television series NCIS has made him widely recognized in the entertainment industry. In addition to his successful acting career, his charm & wit off-screen have earned him popularity among fans and other celebrities.

But imagine a young Weatherly who, like a true fan, is obsessed with Tom Hanks’ performances and unintentionally followed the Toy Story star into the acting world. Years later, after establishing his own acting career, Weatherly experienced a surreal twist of fate when he served drinks at Hanks’ party but someone mistakenly assumed him to be the waiter.

NCIS garnered Michael Weatherly a lot of fans. But there were some corners of the world where the actor was able to enjoy some level of anonymity. When hanging out with movie star Tom Hanks, he was briefly reminded what it was like to not be famous.

Hanks already played a huge role in Weatherly’s life before the two met each other. The Toy Story star was partially responsible for Weatherly becoming an actor. In a 2008 interview with TV Guide, Weatherly rattled off a few names that inspired him in his adolescent years.

NCIS is coming back to the screens later this year with its season 22, and there might be more surprises than everyone is expecting right now. The last season’s finale left two major cliffhangers for the next installment, and fans are probably counting days until they finally get to see what happens to Jessica Knight after she accepts that big offer and whether Alden Parker’s vision will force the show to dive deeper into the character’s backstory.

However, NCIS’ next season might also highlight the return of an original character that was gone too soon by season 3, yet there are still some ways for them to make their way back to the show.

Started in 2003, NCIS featured Sasha Alexander’s Caitlin ‘Kate’ Todd as one of the Special Agents right until the season 2 finale, where she was shot dead by sniper and Mossad double-agent Ari Haswari, with Ziva...

With so many very popular procedural TV shows, it seems like a very easy genre to tap into and achieve instant success. Especially if the main character is already known and loved by the audience. Especially if the show airs in prime time on a popular network. And yet, it may not be enough.

There are too many factors that go into making the show successful, and if it's not, it's usually scrapped. The case of CBS' Bull shows just how far a procedural can go by relying on just one actor.

Is Bull Worth Watching?

Bull was a CBS legal procedural drama starring Michael Weatherly, the star of the NCIS franchise, as Dr. Jason Bull, a psychologist who once dreamed of becoming a lawyer but failed the licensing exam twice and had to settle for working with lawyers to solve the toughest cases.

On NCIS, Weatherly portrayed a fan-favorite character,...

NCIS star Michael Weatherly left the long-running procedural after 13 years on the show. But Weatherly once joked that the show might’ve benefited from an even earlier departure.

Weatherly agonized a bit over leaving NCIS. He’d built up a passionate fanbase in his 13 years on the hit show, and had a close professional bond with a few of his co-workers. Speaking with Extra, Weatherly confided that he had an epiphany sometime before his final season on the show. Weatherly jotted down ideas about his character Tony Dinozzo, and realized through his brainstorming that the special agent might’ve run its course.

“I wrote down a long series of ideas and feelings and everything. And I realized, ‘Oh, Dinozzo has to go.’ Like, it’s time for him to graduate,” Weatherly said.

Weatherly was gearing...

NCIS shocked many when Cote de Pablo initially left the series after 11 seasons. But she made her return to the franchise not too long ago, which she would’ve only done for a good reason.

De Pablo initially left NCIS under peculiar circumstances, the details of which are still under wraps. She lamented over having to leave her NCIS fans the way she did. But she and the show’s team tried reassuring the fans that e Pablo’s character Ziva David would be given a proper and satisfying sendoff.

“We wanted to give her the most graceful, emotional payoff we could,” executive Gary Glasberg once told TV Guide. “It was a pretty magical moment. Cote took it and ran with it, and the emotion you’ll see on screen is very real.

Michael Weatherly has signed with Verve for representation, Variety has learned exclusively. Weatherly continues to be repped by Anonymous Content and McKuin Frankel.

Weatherly is best known for his time on the long-running CBS procedural “NCIS.” Weatherly portrayed Special Agent Tony Dinozzo on the hit show for 13 seasons. He departed the show in 2016, but made a special guest appearance in the second episode of the recent 21st season.

Weatherly will reprise the role of Dinozzo in a new “NCIS” spinoff series currently in the works at Paramount+ in the first streaming exclusive series in franchise history. He will reunite with Cote de Pablo, who played Special Agent Ziva David on “NCIS.” Weatherly serves as an executive producer on the series in addition to starring, as does de Pablo.

The official description of the series states, “Tony and Ziva have been raising their daughter, Tali, together. When Tony’s security company is attacked,...

NCIS fans fell in love with the on-screen chemistry between agents Ziva David and Tony Dinozzo in the early seasons of the hit TV show NCIS.

Now, NCIS fans are getting the reunion we've wished for in a surprising way!

Earlier this month, Paramount+ announced the exciting news that fans will get to enjoy yet another NCIS spinoff.

This time, writers have brought back Ziva and Dinozzo, along with their daughter Tali. Here's everything we know about the unnamed NCIS Tiva TV series.

Martin Scorsese is widely regarded as the greatest living filmmaker of modern cinema. But like a modest director, Scorsese has long credited his success to his collaborative partnership with Thelma Schoonmaker, whom he considers the greatest living film editor. For over five decades, Schoonmaker has been the mastermind behind the editing room, shaping Scorsese’s vision into cinematic masterpieces.

He returned to his roots in 2021 with dark thriller Bull, a revenge story featuring a powerhouse performance by Neil Maskell.

One of the biggest storylines for fans came with the growing relationship between Tony and Ziva. However, thanks to Cote de Pablo leaving the show, and then Michael Weatherly departing, this love story never had a satisfying ending for fans.

That will change with a Tony and Ziva NCIS spinoff series coming to Paramount+. Here is what you need to know.
