“There was a very different ending to the finale that we shot, and I decided to cut it,” creator and showrunner John McNamara tells The Wrap, explaining he hopes to use the “very dark” cliffhanger footage to kick off a new adventure in a potential Season 2. “The final moment we went with is a credit to (Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly). They are the ones who made that scene work, giving it a weight and power that I didn’t realize it had when it was on the page,” he said. “Once I saw the footage I was like, ‘That’s the ending.’” ALSO: John McNamara on the prospects for a Season 2 renewal: “I am really, really, really, intensely superstitious about these things.” (https://deadline.com/2025/10/ncis-tony-and-ziva-showrunner-finale-interview-1236594928/)
