NCIS: What Gibbs Actor Mark Harmon Looks Like Today
Mark Harmon has been spending a little time off the Hollywood radar since leaving “NCIS” in 2021. He hasn’t popped up in any new projects since, but it looks like that’s about to change. Not only has he surfaced on the set of “Freaky Friday 2,” he’s begun to make public appearences, largely in conjunction with and as part of the cast of the upcoming Leroy Jethro Gibbs (originally played by Harmon) spin-off “NCIS: Origins.”

Aside from a few paparazzi walks in June, the actor has popped up at CBS events to promote “Origins.” Back in May, Harmon appeared alongside the young actor who will be playing Gibbs in the program, Austin Stowell, and spoke about how he will be providing a voiceover narration for the program. It also showcased the difference in how the actors playing Gibbs look in comparison with one another. It looks like Harmon’s career is starting to resurge, and that any rumors of his retirement have been greatly exaggerated.
Mark Harmon’s career is on the rise
“NCIS: Origins” work aside, Mark Harmon will reprise his role as Ryan, the handsome talk show host husband of Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis), in the upcoming Disney sequel “Freaky Friday 2.” When things go wild with Tess and her daughter Anna (Lindsay Lohan) once again, he’ll be in the thick of things. Of course, things are going to be doubly complicated, since Anna now has a boyfriend of her own (an unnamed character to be played by Manny Jacinto).
Harmon doesn’t have any other projects scheduled, but presumably he’ll be doing a lot more than produce and narrate “Origins.” After all, the door’s wide open for an “NCIS” return, with Gibbs happily retired but still able to intervene whenever someone needs him. It’s the kind of justice the character would be happy to dole out whenever he can — and the sort Harmon would likely be glad to be involved in.
