BREAKING: Tony & Ziva Spinoff Gets Premiere Date — Fans Go Wild!

NCIS: Tony & Ziva Gets Premiere Date — and It’s Sooner Than You Think

It’s been a long time coming, but fans of NCIS can finally mark their calendars: NCIS: Tony & Ziva is set to premiere Thursday, September 4, exclusively on Paramount+ in multiple countries including the U.S., UK, Canada, Australia, and more.

The highly anticipated spinoff kicks off with three episodes on premiere day, with the remaining episodes releasing weekly every Thursday, leading up to the season finale on October 23.

A Reunion Worth the Wait

Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo — who return as Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David — couldn’t be more excited to reunite on screen after more than a decade. “Returning to these roles together has been an unforgettable journey,” they shared in a joint statement. “Packed with lies, spies, danger, desire… and self-driving murder cars. (Don’t worry, that last one will make sense soon).”

What’s the Story?

Set years after their last on-screen moments, Tony & Ziva picks up in Paris, where the couple has been raising their daughter Tali (played by The Outlaws’ Isla Gie). But when Tony’s security firm comes under attack, the family is forced to go on the run across Europe, navigating conspiracies, international enemies, and a complicated romantic past, all while trying to protect their daughter and carve out a future.

Meet the Cast

Alongside Weatherly, de Pablo, and Gie, the show boasts a strong international cast:

• Lara Rossi as Sophie, Tali’s SAS-trained nanny
• Amita Suman as Claudette, CTO at Tony’s firm
• Maximilian Osinski as Boris, a brilliant and elusive hacker
• James D’Arcy as Henry, a high-ranking Interpol agent
• Julian Ovenden as Jonah, former NSA programmer and now Interpol Secretary General
• Nassima Benchicou as Martine, a former French intelligence operative
• Terence Maynard as Dr. Lang, a trauma therapist

Behind the Scenes

Veteran TV creator John McNamara (The Magicians, Profit) serves as showrunner and penned the series premiere. Executive producers include Weatherly, de Pablo, Laurie Lieser, Christina Strain, and Shelley Meals.

McNamara describes the show as “a serialized story of intrigue, espionage, romance, and family” told across 10 thrilling episodes. He adds, “We get to explore Tony and Ziva’s complicated relationship and co-parenting struggles — all under the threat of constant danger.”

Why It’s Streaming-Only

Though part of the NCIS universe, Tony & Ziva was designed specifically for streaming. “It was always meant to be a Paramount+ show,” said CBS Studios president David Stapf. “Tony and Ziva are a global phenomenon, and this platform allows us to bring their story to a worldwide audience.”

The Legacy Lives On

First introduced in NCIS Season 3, Ziva and Tony’s chemistry quickly became a fan-favorite dynamic. After Ziva’s supposed death in Season 13 and Tony’s exit to raise their daughter, the characters remained off-screen for years. That changed in the NCIS Season 16 finale, when Ziva returned from the dead in a shocking reveal. Though their reunion was confirmed to have happened off-camera in Paris, fans never got to see it — until now.

With familiar faces, new dangers, and a backdrop of European intrigue, NCIS: Tony & Ziva promises action, romance, and everything fans have waited over a decade to see.

Streaming begins September 4. Buckle up — it’s going to be a wild ride.
