The Leroy Jethro Gibbs & Director Leon Vance Actors Go Way Back (Yes, Further Than NCIS)

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِيتم التحقق من هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي كعضو.]

NCIS actors Mark Harmon (Leroy Jethro Gibbs) and Rocky Carroll (Leon Vance) go way back, even further than their extended time together in the cast of NCIS. Mark Harmon has appeared as Jethro Gibbs since NCIS originated as a backdoor pilot on the legal drama JAG. Rocky Carroll joined the show as NCIS Director Leon Vance a little while later in NCIS season 5, making him the show's longest-standing NCIS director. While both actors have a track record as mainstays on the show for nearly two decades, respectively, their familiarity with each other predates the police procedural.
