Jamey Sheridan has recovered nicely from the "Homeland" Season 2 finale, scoring a plum role on CBS’ "NCIS".

TVLine has learned exclusively that the actor will guest-star on TV’s most watched drama as NCIS agent Timothy McGee’s father, Admiral John McGee, in an illuminating episode titled 'Squall' and likely airing in late March.



“Jamey Sheridan’s recent work on Homeland just reinforced what a terrific actor he is,” "NCIS" show runner Gary Glasberg tells TVLine. “The role of McGee’s father is complex and layered with some real surprises thrown in. We can’t wait to see what Jamey does with it and how he plays opposite Sean Murray.”

The introduction of McGee’s occasionally-mentioned, never-seen father — which was originally envisioned to fall during February sweeps — “will be part of what leads us into our final arc,” Glasberg previously previewed.
