Ziva may return in NCIS season 12, according to one of the stars of the show.

Cote de Pablo’s return has long been subject to rumors and speculation, but now there seems to be confirmation that she will come at one point--possibly this season.

“I am sure they will see each other again, and I’m deeply fascinated by what kind of fireworks would result,” Michael Weatherly (Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo) told TVGuide. “I absolutely know that it would not be without some explosive quality.”

Show creator Gary Glasberg and Weatherly both said they'd welcome a storyline that brings de Pablo and her beloved character back.

“We didn’t kill her,” Glasberg said. “So, Ziva’s still out there and she’s still alive. ... We'll just have to see what happens.”
