Cote de Pablo, known for her portrayal of Ziva David on NCIS, departed from the show in 2013, citing personal reasons for her decision. While the specifics of her departure were not publicly disclosed, it was undoubtedly a challenging choice for her. Despite CBS attempting to retain her by offering a higher salary, she ultimately chose to move on.
Following a three-month hiatus from acting, de Pablo gradually returned to the industry but opted for more selective roles.
In a recent episode of NCIS, Emily Wickersham’s character, Ellie Bishop, received a cryptic text message hinting at the potential return of Ziva. However, no official confirmation has been provided by the show’s creators. NCIS has a reputation for surprising its audience, so fans will need to continue tuning in to discover what lies ahead for Ziva’s character.
