NCIS fans are about to say goodbye to a belove character.
Wilmer Valderrama revealed one of the CBS crime drama’s mainstays will die during the upcoming season 22 finale.
Noting that the Aprill 28 episode left viewers with “big, big questions” during a May 1 interview on CBS Mornings, the That ’70s Show alum promised the May 5 finale will answer those cliff-hangers and more.
“Somebody does die,” Valderrama—who plays Special Agent Nick Torres on the long-running series—teased. “Somebody dies—and it’s not the murder of the week. It’s somebody, unfortunately, very close to us, and it’s going to be very earth-shattering and really heartbreaking.”
However, the 45-year-old promised the plot twist will ensure even more exciting storylines for next season.
“It’s going to shake up the team and I think it’s going to probably really push us to go rogue in season 23,” Valderrama explained. “The biggest idea was to say, ‘How do we disrupt the peace of season 22 and set up the tone for season 23?’ And this episode does that better than we’ve done in many years.”
