NCIS Cast Learned About Cote de Pablo’s Shocking Exit Only 20 Minutes Before Fans—Nobody Wanted Her to Leave!

Cote de Pablo’s sudden departure from NCIS in 2013 left both fans and cast members stunned. According to reports, the cast learned of her exit only 20 minutes before it was publicly announced, leaving them little time to process the news. De Pablo’s portrayal of Ziva David had become a cornerstone of the show, and her on-screen chemistry with the team, especially Michael Weatherly’s Tony DiNozzo, made her one of the most beloved characters. The abruptness of her departure shocked not only viewers but also her co-stars, who expressed their disappointment and sadness over losing her.

De Pablo later revealed that her decision stemmed from concerns about her character’s storyline and a desire for more meaningful material. Despite her departure, nobody—cast, crew, or fans—wanted her to leave, as her absence created a noticeable void in the show’s dynamic. Her exit sparked campaigns and petitions from fans urging her to return, and while she eventually made a brief comeback in Season 17, the impact of her sudden departure continues to be a hot topic in the NCIS fandom.
