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.

Her connection with Gibbs feels so personal, and we are betting Season 2 will explore how it changes him.

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.

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.
