‘NCIS: Tony & Ziva’: Cote de Pablo Explains Why She ‘Did Not Need’ an Intimacy Coordinator

As seen in the newest NCIS: Tony & Ziva trailer (released at the show’s San Diego Comic-Con panel), things are heating up between the titular former agents in their long-awaited NCIS spinoff, premiering in September on Paramount+.

In recent years, intimacy coordinators have become the norm on sets for such steamy scenes, but Cote de Pablo told us that she didn’t use one for her upcoming series with Michael Weatherly. “Did not need one. They asked me first, I think because I’m a female and blah, blah, blah, and I said, ‘I don’t need one. Thank you for offering,'” she shared.
