After so a few years taking part in the identical character, it is pure for a lot of actors to need to get away of the routine. “NCIS” has made up the majority of Sean Murray’s resume over the previous 20 years, so whereas one may surmise he’d be prepared for one thing else, it would not sound like he has plans to go away.
In February 2023, Murray spoke with Leisure Weekly concerning the present’s longevity, concluding with one eye towards the longer term. He would not sound like he is planning on leaving McGee behind: “I am so completely satisfied the place I am at. My head is simply in what we’re doing proper now.” Granted, all good issues should come to an finish, and although “NCIS” has been on the air for a number of many years at this level, it will need to bow out in some unspecified time in the future. Hopefully, that does not happen any time quickly, however Murray is aware of what he desires to do afterward: “When the present finally ends, I will need to do one thing very totally different, a special sort of present and a really totally different sort of character.”
No matter how lengthy “NCIS” sticks round, the franchise remains to be going robust. There are in style spinoffs like “NCIS: Hawai’i” and lots of extra are within the works, together with the prequel present, “NCIS: Origins,” centered on a younger Leroy Gibbs, starring Austin Stowell. Till Murray says in any other case, it is a protected guess McGee can be sticking round for some time.
