So, who is returning for season three and who is exiting?
Austin Stowell as Leroy Jethro Gibbs – Confirmed to Return!
Austin Stowell will of course continue portraying the young version of Leroy Jethro Gibbs in season 3 of the hit!
In a recent interview with Deadline, he opened up about playing the iconic role created by Mark Harmon: “I was scared for so many reasons. There were just so many first times. For me, it was the first time doing a network TV show, first time playing a character that had already been portrayed before me, first time to be number one on a call sheet.”
He added, “I’m someone who likes pressure; I like to be put in that situation. I want the ball in my hands at the bottom of the ninth. I feel like I do thrive in that situation. But I don’t think I’ll ever quite get comfortable because, at the end of the day, Gibbs will always be Mark Harmon’s character, and I’m playing the younger version of that.”
