Jon Cryer Visits ‘NCIS’, Plus ‘NCIS’ & ‘NCIS:NOLA’ News & Pics
6 min readEW.com reports that Jon Cryer (Two and a Half Men) will appear in three episodes of NCIS’s upcoming thirteenth season. He’ll play Dr Taft, the Navy surgeon tasked with saving the life of Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon), who was shot in the season 12 finale. Appropriately, the season 13 premiere is titled “Stop the Bleeding”. Here’s an excerpt from EW’s short interview with Cryer:
What will NCIS fans find most fascinating about Taft, and what do you find most fascinating about him?
So far, the writers have only hinted at the depths of him. What I’m looking forward to is seeing his friendship with Gibbs. He’s not the kind of guy Gibbs usually takes to.
Cryer posted several photos from the NCIS set last month, which you can find in this post. And here’s the original EW tweet, offering a first look at Cryer’s character:

Deadline reports that the CW network is developing “a hyper-stylized, gritty adaptation” of Louisa May Alcott’s 1868 novel Little Women. The drama comes from Michael Weatherly’s (Tony DiNozzo) company, Solar Drive Productions. Weatherly will serve as an executive producer alongside the project’s writer, Alexis Jolly.
