NCIS: ORIGINS: Austin Stowell to Play Young Gibbs

Austin Stowell will play young Leroy Jethro Gibbs in the upcoming NCIS prequel, NCIS: ORIGINS. (The series will bow during the 2024-25 season.)

According to CBS, “NCIS: ORIGINS, produced by CBS Studios, is the newest chapter in the NCIS franchise, exploring Gibbs’ early years. Narrated by Mark Harmon, the new series begins in 1991, years prior to the events of NCIS, and follows a young Leroy Jethro Gibbs. In the series, Gibbs starts his career as a newly minted special agent at the fledgling NIS Camp Pendleton office where he forges his place on a gritty, ragtag team led by NCIS legend Mike Franks.”

Stowell’s previous TV credits include A FRIEND OF THE FAMILY, THE HATING GAME, and CATCH 22.

David J. North and Gina Lucita Monreal will serve as co-showrunners, with Harmon and Sean Harmon serving as executive producers.
