Amid the uncertainty surrounding Special Agent Jessica Knight’s future on NCIS, actress Katrina Law’s recent Instagram post suggests there’s more in store for her character. Law’s caption, “Guess we gotta wait for CBS FALL,” alongside press photos and Alice Cooper’s “School’s Out” playing in the background, intensifies the mystery. While the song hints at ambiguity about Knight’s departure—whether temporary for the summer or permanent—the post hints at a potential comeback.
Although Knight may no longer be a regular on the main NCIS team, having accepted a position at Pendleton across the country, Law’s comments in a TVLine interview indicate viewers should keep an eye on the season 22 opener to see if Knight reemerges. Showrunner Steven D. Binder’s enigmatic tease further fuels speculation, suggesting the possibility of Knight’s unexpected return, a scenario that’s occurred with other characters in the past.
