To celebrate the 20th anniversary of "NCIS," The Hollywood Reporter shared an oral history featuring interviews with key directors and producers. Glenn Geller, a former CBS executive, revealed that after Michael Weatherly's departure from "NCIS," he aimed to keep working with him and succeeded by bringing him onto the show "Bull." However, Weatherly's post-NCIS career was marred by allegations from his former co-star Eliza Dushku, resulting in a settlement payment and consequences for the show's production.

Weatherly has not announced any new TV or film roles since the conclusion of "Bull" in May 2022.
