As a die-hard NCIS fan who has followed the franchise through its highs and lows for over two decades, the announcement of NCIS: Origins sent me into a frenzy! The prospect of delving deeper into Gibbs’s backstory, particularly during his early days as an agent, is like striking gold for us devoted fans.

As a dedicated NCIS fan, hearing that we’re getting a prequel titled “NCIS: Origins” was simply thrilling! I can hardly wait to delve into the early days of Agent Gibbs, learning more about how he established all those iconic rules of his. This promises to be an intriguing look at the genesis of one of TV’s greatest characters.

In the “NCIS: Origins” spin-off, the backstory and construction distinguish it within the well-known franchise. Mark Harmon, who usually portrays Gibbs on screen, will instead provide the narrative voiceover for this prequel, which takes place during the 1990s.

Their mutual admiration and warmth towards each other were evident whenever Mike appeared on NCIS. Additionally, we’ll encounter Special Agent Vera Strickland, previously partnered with Mike, appearing in a single episode of the original series. Furthermore, viewers will have an opportunity to delve deeper into Gibbs’s relationship with his father, Jackson, as they watch this episode.

Which two other favorites may appear on NCIS: Origins?

According to TVLine’s report, two familiar characters from NCIS could make an appearance in the new spinoff. As shared by co-showrunners Gina Monreal and David North, they might introduce younger versions of Hetty Lange and Dwayne Pride. North expressed, “We don’t want to rule anything out.”
