After losing an original cast member."NCIS" Season 14 will add two new agents--and another returning cast--on the crew. The first promo teaser for the new season also revealed hints on how the story would carry on.
In place of Anthony DiNozzo, who played the character of Michael Weatherly will be agents Alexandra "Alex" Quinn to be played by Jennifer Esposito and Nicholas "Nick" Torres to be played by Wilmer Valderrama.
However Valderrama said he will not be a mere replacement for DiNozzo but will be his own character.
"[Weatherly] had a fantastic journey with the show. The truth is there's no shoes to fill, I'm definitely wearing my own. I'm excited because as a new member of NCIS I get to bring a new energy to it, a different dynamic," Valderrama said in a Comic-con last month according to Yibada.
MI6 Officer Clayton Reeves played by Duane Henr will also come back as a cast member on the "NCIS" Season 14.
In an interview with TVLine, showrunner Gary Glasberg talked about the new characters "It's interesting, because we obviously lost Michael Weatherly, and we're so happy for him... and yet after 13 years, you go, 'Wow, now we have a new injection of different energy.'"
Plot
A fatal car explosion in Washington, which was apparently linked to Torres, reported by TVLine will be investigated by Gibbs' (Mark Hammon) team. And while there's no agent yet to replace Weatherly in the team, Gibbs will ask Torres, an undercover agent who disappeared in Argentina for six months due to an assignment and Quinn, an instructor at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center to be part of the team.
