NCIS: Origins Season 2: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on July 14, 2025, 20:00 IST Last updated July 14, 2025, 16:08 IST Hey, NCIS fans! If you're anything like us, you're still reeling from that NCIS: Origins Season 1 finale and itching to know what's next for young Leroy Jethro Gibbs. The prequel, set in the gritty '90s at Camp Pendleton, hooked us with its deep dive into Gibbs' early days as a rookie agent. With Season 2 officially greenlit by CBS, let's unpack everything we know about the release date, cast, plot twists, and more. Grab a coffee, and let's chat about what's coming! NCIS: Origins Season 2 Premiere Date Mark your calendars: NCIS: Origins Season 2 is hitting CBS on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, as reported by Parade. That's right, the date's locked in. The show's moving to Tuesdays, joining the NCIS lineup for a killer night of drama. If you're more of a streamer, episodes will drop on Paramount+ the day after they air. Perfect for those late-night binges or catching up on the go. Expected Cast for NCIS: Origins Season 2 The core cast of NCIS: Origins is expected to return for Season 2, barring any major plot twists in the Season 1 finale. Here's a look at the key players likely to reprise their roles: Austin Stowell as Leroy Jethro Gibbs Kyle Schmid as Mike Franks Mariel Molino as Special Agent Cecilia 'Lala' Dominguez Tyla Abercrumbie as Mary Jo Hayes Diany Rodriguez as Vera Strickland Caleb Foote as Bernard 'Randy' Randolf Mark Harmon as Narrator (Older Gibbs) Kathleen Kenny as Diane There's also talk on X about new characters or even young versions of NCIS legends like Ducky. Nothing's confirmed, but wouldn't that be cool? We might also see Patrick Fischler back as Agent Wheeler, stirring the pot as always. NCIS: Origins Season 2 Potential Plot Details NCIS: Origins isn't your typical NCIS case-of-the-week show. It's got this intense, emotional vibe that digs into Gibbs' past, and Season 2 sounds like it's doubling down on that. The Season 1 finale left us hanging with Lala's accident and Gibbs facing off with Pedro Hernandez's killer. My heart was racing! Here's what I think we're in for: Gibbs' Love Life : Diane's entrance is a big deal. We know from NCIS that she becomes Gibbs' second wife, but their story won't be all roses. The showrunners promised to stay true to the original series, so we are curious how they'll handle this romance. : Diane's entrance is a big deal.

Lala's Cliffhanger : That car crash had me yelling at my TV. Is Lala okay? Her connection with Gibbs feels so personal, and we are betting Season 2 will explore how it changes him. : That car crash had me yelling at my TV. Is Lala okay?

Team Drama : Operation Sundown left the team shaken, and Randy's talk of wanting a desk job could shift things. Plus, Wheeler's scheming might cause more trouble. : Operation Sundown left the team shaken, and Randy's talk of wanting a desk job could shift things. Plus, Wheeler's scheming might cause more trouble. Ties to NCIS History: We are hoping for more nods to Gibbs' family tragedy or even early hints of characters we know from the main series. The show's great at weaving in those connections without feeling forced. The showrunners, Gina Lucita Monreal and David J. North, said in a TV Line interview that they've got a lot of room to play with Gibbs' story. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

Paramount, President Trump Reach $16 Million Settlement Over 60 Minutes Lawsuit
Paramount will settle President Donald Trump's lawsuit over an October 60 Minutes interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris, CBS' parent company announced late Tuesday. The settlement, for $16 million, will be paid to Trump's future presidential library and also cover the plaintiffs' fees and costs. Neither Trump nor co-plaintiff Rep. Ronny Jackson will directly receive monies from the settlement.

Paramount will not issue an apology. The lawsuit, filed on Oct. 31 — just days before the presidential election — centered on CBS News' dissemination of two different clips of Democratic nominee Harris' thoughts on the conflict in the Middle East. A longer version aired on Face the Nation, while a shorter excerpt was used the next day on 60 Minutes. CBS News had always maintained that each excerpt reflected the substance of Harris' answer, and in February full transcripts were released to support that stance. Ten days prior to filing suit, Trump called for CBS to no less than 'lose its license,' which is not really a thing. ('The FCC does not and will not revoke licenses for broadcast stations simply because a political candidate disagrees with or dislikes content or coverage,' the commission made clear in October.) 'I've never seen anything like it,' Trump told Fox News' Media Buzz on Oct. 20. '[CBS decided to take] the whole ridiculous answer out, and it was a long answer, and replace it [on 60 Minutes] with a much shorter answer that she did having to do with a totally different subject.' 'Same question. Same answer. But a different portion of the response,' asserted an Oct. 21 statement from 60 Minutes. 'When we edit any interview… we strive to be clear, accurate and on point. The portion of her answer on 60 Minutes was more succinct, which allows time for other subjects in a wide-ranging, 21-minute-long segment.' Trump's lawsuit was filed in federal court in the Northern District of Texas Amarillo — where the lone judge is a 2019 Trump appointee — and made unusual use of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Consumer Protection Act, which is meant to keep advertisers from misleading the public about a product being sold. The plaintiffs originally sought $10 billion in damages, and bumped up the number to $20 billion in February, arguing that millions of Americans 'were confused and misled by the two doctored Interview versions.' After the suit was filed, longtime 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens announced his exit, saying it has 'become clear that I would not be allowed to run the show as I have always run it.' Wendy McMahon, CEO of CBS News and Stations, also stepped down, saying, 'It's become clear that the company and I do not agree on the path forward.' Paramount's settlement comes six months after ABC News agreed to apologize and pay $15 million to settle a suit brought by Trump for comments made on-air by George Stephanopoulos in March 2024. Of note, Paramount's $8.4 billion merger with Skydance Media is still awaiting approval from the FCC, which is now led by Trump appointee Brendan Carr, and recently let a soft May deadline come and go.
