As “NCIS” prepares for its 21st season in 2024, uncertainties loom over the futures of key characters. Speculation swirls around Wilmer Valderrama’s character, Nick Torres, amid rumors of the actor’s potential departure due to personal controversies. Valderrama’s inability to comment, given the ongoing actor’s strike, only adds to the mystery. Torres, a crucial member of the team, faced significant challenges in the previous season, amplifying concerns about his potential exit.
On a somber note, the passing of David McCallum, who portrayed Donald “Ducky” Mallard, leaves an irreplaceable void. The show’s delay to 2024 means McCallum’s death precedes any filming, prompting questions about how the series will address his absence. Fans anticipate a heartfelt tribute to McCallum, possibly featuring cameos from original cast members.
