Gibbs Won't Be the Only Fresh-Faced 'NCIS' Character in the Prequel Series

Kyle Schmid in NCIS: Origins

The NCIS prequel series, NCIS: Origins, is slated to hit television screens in less than two weeks. The trailer has already given us a peek into Leroy Jethro Gibbs's world circa 1991 at the start of his career with the agency that would eventually become NCIS. Austin Stowell plays the younger version of Gibbs, while Mark Harmon returns both for the premiere episode and to narrate the series as a whole.

In an interview with TVLine, co-showrunner David North has an open mind when it comes to seeing younger versions of characters we've already seen in the flagship NCIS."Sure!" affirms North."I don’t think we want to say no to anything.

So does that mean we could see one or more of the women that eventually go on to be Gibbs's ex-wives? If the show makes it all the way up to 1999 , would we see a younger version of Lauren Holly's Jenny Shepherd? With North's affirmation of"I don't want to say no," it could very well mean that the door is open for anyone Gibbs could've crossed paths with prior to their first appearance on NCIS.
