Michael Weatherly Returns to ‘NCIS’ as Jonathan Bailey Exits West End Musical

CBS is rolling out the red carpet for the 24th season of *NCIS*, and long-time procedural fans are getting a massive blast from the past. Michael Weatherly is officially stepping back into the shoes of Anthony "Tony" DiNozzo for the upcoming season premiere. This marks the actor's first official onscreen appearance on the flagship series since he originally departed the show back in 2016. A newly released teaser offers a quick sneak peek at DiNozzo reunited with the agency, though his official status has clearly shifted over the years. Rather than carrying standard badge credentials, Tony is shown wearing a temporary visitor tag that lists him as a "Very Special Non-Agent." He steps in to help the team tackle the ongoing investigation surrounding the major security breach that capped off season 23. Fans can catch the premiere when it hits television screens on Tuesday, October 6, at 8 p.m. ET.
