Walking Dead: World Beyond actor Max Osinski has been cast in NCSI: Tony and Ziva

The Walking Dead: World Beyond and Ted Lasso actor Max Osinski has secured his next role. He will star in the NCIS spinoff NCIS: Tony and Ziva that will air on Paramount+.

The NCIS-verse announced a new spinoff series that will focus on the characters Tony and Ziva, portrayed by Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo in the flagship series. NCIS: Tony & Ziva will feature the characters on screen together for the first time in 10 years.

The new series will begin several years after Ziva, who was thought to have died, was discovered alive. She completed one last mission before joining Tony and their daughter Tali in Paris. The story picks up as they are raising 12-year-old Tali (Isla Gie) together, and Tony's security company is attacked. This requires them to go on the run across Europe as they work together to discover who is behind the attack while learning to trust one another once again so they can live out their unconventional happily ever after.

Osinski shared the news on Instagram with the caption "Buckle up, folks! It’s not what you expect 🚀🎉"

NCIS: Tony & Ziva is produced by CBS Studios and executive produced by John McNamara, Michael Weatherly, Cote de Pablo, Laurie Lieser, Christina Strain, Shelley Meals, and Mairzee Almas.

What else does Max Osinski star in?

Osinski is very well known for his role as Zava in Ted Lasso. He only appeared in four episodes but he made quite the impact as the over the top footballer. He snobbishly uttered the line "It's an honor for you to meet me."

Next, he will appear in an action thriller, Levon's Trade, directed by David Ayer and written by Sylvester Stallone. The movie, which is scheduled to release on January 17, 2025, also stars Jason Statham and David Harbour. Osinski will also appear in the Kevin James led Guns Up action comedy.
