NCIS: This actor, well-known to fans since the beginning of the series, refuses to appear, and the reasons why will surprise you

Attention all NCIS fans! If you want to know all about the hit series, you must listen to the podcast hosted by Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly. Each week, the duo revisits iconic episodes of the TV show in NCIS: Off Duty.

Enough to satisfy the curiosity of early viewers! This week, the two actors received Joe Spano, who lends his qualities to Tobias Fornell. Not only is he the actor with the most appearances on the series outside of the main cast, but he has also appeared in every season since its inception.

A real record! It has 58 episodes. So his appearance on the show was an opportunity for DiNozzo to ask the interpreter why he never wanted to become a permanent member of the team:

“We must finally embody who we are not!”

“I didn’t want to do what you did. It wasn’t a matter of time, it was what happened to you… I could see it. Actually, it’s hard to explain because you end up. Transforming ourselves and taking on a character that we’re not really .”

He continues: “Promoting a show, having a certain reaction to what people see… it’s not who you are, but you feel obligated to fit that image for your work and for them. Playing that role over and over again, you lose sight of who. You really are.”

“It’s constant pressure”

“No one really knows who they are, but sometimes you have a little bit of freedom to discover yourself. There, it’s like a constant pressure where you’re stuck trying to portray someone you’re not or struggling, and sometimes you let it all go. It breaks you.” he concludes at the microphone of his two former costars.

Joe Spano I never wanted to join NCIS forever and that’s okay!
