Mark Harmon has been one of the most familiar faces on TV, thanks to his lead starring role for all 16 seasons of the original “NCIS” series. But with a new TV project on his plate, does this mean the long-running rumor of his “NCIS” departure might eventually come true?
Harmon is taking the lead in bringing John Sandford’s “Prey” novel series on TV along with CBS — the same network that has been broadcasting the entire “NCIS” franchise. The 67-year-old actor will serve as one of the executive producers for the upcoming TV show, The Hollywood Reporter shared.
It is not clear yet whether Mark Harmon will have any starring role for the “Prey” TV adaptation series. But as long as his responsibilities for the new show remains behind the camera, there is a small chance he is going to leave “NCIS” because of the new series.
This is not the first time Harmon is attached to a TV series other than “NCIS.” Aside from portraying the seemingly invincible Leroy Jethro Gibbs, Harmon is also an executive producer for the original series and its spin-off titles “NCIS: Los Angeles” and “NCIS: New Orleans.”

The pilot episodes of both the “NCIS” spin-off titles had help from Mark Harmon’s Gibbs while more crossover events followed over the years. Since the “Prey” TV adaptation is also under CBS TV Studios’ wing, hoping for a future outside-NCIS appearance might be possible.
Meanwhile, “Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments” executive producer Ed Decter will also work on the “Prey” TV adaptation. Interestingly, Harmon’s newest TV project sounds like a combination of the plot elements that made “NCIS” and “Criminal Minds” popular.
The TV adaptation of “Prey” will revolve around the investigative works of detective Lucas Davenport and psychological profiler Elle Krueger. Prior to working together hunting down murderers, Lucas and Elle will be brought together by a prior tragedy. Harmon has been attached to TV shows set in Washington, DC, Los Angeles, and New Orleans. Now, the “Prey” series brings him to Minnesota.
