“Mark [Harmon] said to us, ‘I didn’t know you guys were doing that, and there was no greater way to honor David [McCallum] than to put his music [in], because David felt so passionate about his music,'” NCIS: Origins executive producer David J. North says of the upcoming tribute to the late actor with Adam Campbell reprising his role as the younger version. Adds EP Gina Lucita Monreal, “There’s three songs that he performed and he was very proud of his music, and we are so proud to put it in the episode and you’ll see, it just fits so beautifully within what we were doing in the episode.”
The episode, titled “The Edge,” after one of McCallum’s songs (which will be featured in the episode), airs on Tuesday, October 28. In it, Campbell’s Ducky comes as a liaison from D.C. headquarters — he and Gibbs have met before, in 1980 (NCIS Season 18 Episode 2, “Everything Starts Somewhere”) — to evaluate whether Pendleton needs an in-house medical examiner, but is that the only reason for his visit? We’ll have to wait and see.
