The cast of NCIS: Tony & Ziva has filled out, with the addition of eight series regulars. Isla Gie, Amita Suman, Maximilian Osinski, and Nassima Benchicou have joined the spinoff. Julian Ovenden, Terence Maynard, Lara Rossi, and James D’Arcy will also star in the new addition to the NCIS franchise.
The just-announced cast join returning fan favorites Cote de Pablo as Ziva David and Michael Weatherly as Tony DiNozzo as filming gets underway in Budapest.
“NCIS: Tony & Ziva picks up after Ziva’s supposed death when Tony left the NCIS team to go raise their daughter. Years later, Ziva was discovered alive, leading her to complete one final mission with NCIS before she was reunited with Tony and their daughter in Paris,” reads Paramount+’s synopsis. “Since then—and where we find them in NCIS: Tony & Ziva—Tony and Ziva have been raising their daughter, Tali, together. When Tony’s security company is attacked, they must go on the run across Europe, try to figure out who is after them and maybe even learn to trust each other again so they can finally have their unconventional happily ever after.”
Paramount+ released details on the new cast and characters:
• Isla Gie (Foundation) as TALI: Tony and Ziva’s precocious 12-year-old daughter who is sick of being treated like a child. She’s more intuitive and vigilant than the adults around her give her credit for and she’s ready to prove this to them.
• Amita Suman (Shadow and Bone) as CLAUDETTE: The Chief Technical Officer at Tony’s private security company and the only reason the place runs as smoothly as it does. There’s no problem Claudette can’t solve or code she can’t crack.
• Maximilian Osinski (Ted Lasso) as BORIS: A Russian ex-pat and a brilliant computer hacker, one of the best and most elusive in the world. Boris lives outside the law and polite society and enjoys the anonymity and freedom that affords.
• Nassima Benchicou (Emily in Paris) as MARTINE: A former French intelligence agent with the Directorate-General for External Security (DGSE). She is elegant and cunning, playing both sides of any conflict masterfully to protect her own self-interest.
• Julian Ovenden (Bridgerton) as JONAH: A former computer programmer for the NSA and now the Secretary General of Interpol. Charming, decisive and confident, Jonah sees the ways in which the world is broken and knows he can fix it.
• Terence Maynard (Coronation Street) as DR. LANG: A deeply experienced therapist, gentle and probing, Dr. Lang treats patients with severe traumas and helps them find comfort and agency.
• Lara Rossi (The Watch) as SOPHIE: A highly skilled professional with a background in the Special Air Service (SAS), Sophie brings a unique blend of maternal warmth and hyper-vigilance to her role as a caretaker for Tali.
• James D’Arcy (Agent Carter) as HENRY: A high-ranking official at Interpol, Henry has spent his career in law enforcement chasing international criminals. Career-focused with no wife or family of his own, Henry has always been happily married to his job.
John McNamara, Michael Weatherly, Cote de Pablo, Laurie Lieser, Christina Strain, Shelley Meals, and Mairzee Almas serve as executive producers.
