Weatherly revealed that although the ultimate choice was to film in Paris, this was impossible this summer. That is because they are hosting the Summer Olympics. He then revealed where it would be filmed. “Budapest will stand in for parts of Europe and the cameras will move some very exciting other places.” However, he did not offer even a hint of where else they could be filming.

There Is A ‘New Element Of Trouble’

In the upcoming spinoff series NCIS: Tony & Ziva, there is “a new element of trouble.” That is in the form of the couple’s teenage daughter Tali. Michael Weatherly explained why Tali is a big part of the equation. “Every choice that Tony and Ziva have to make in their adventure, their child is first and foremost in the front of their mind. when we were on the NCIS the Mothership, we didn’t have children.”

He continued. “When you have a child, you have to navigate what is best for them. And then maybe you have a co-parent that you have a tumultuous relationship with…and oh, wait, we also have to save the world.”

It sounds like a lot of moving parts!
