He opened up about his decision to quit the show almost a year after leaving the show, for a special featurette on the show’s season 19 DVD release.
He sat down to discuss the legacy of his character, as well as his thoughts on how the show wrapped up his storyline, and said that the opportunity to tackle “fresh” and “challenging” material is what kept him returning to the drama every season— suggesting that he felt that after almost two decades on the show, he no longer felt that was the case.
Following Mark’s onscreen departure, Showrunner Steve Binder released a statement that heavily hinting Gibbs could make a comeback in future seasons.
It read: “As an executive producer and dear friend, Mark continues to be an integral part of the fabric of the show. Our north star has always been staying true to our characters, and that truth has always guided the stories we tell and where those characters go.
“So regarding the future of Gibbs, as long-time fans of the show may have noticed over the years… never count Leroy Jethro Gibbs out.”While Mark is very well known for his acting, when it comes to his personal life, less is known – and he prefers to keep it that way.He previously opened up about the reason he has opted out of getting Instagram or Twitter in an interview with TV Insider.
He said of his and wife Pam’s privacy: “It’s who we are. We stay home. A lot. I’m not a Twitter guy or a Facebook guy. Our sons aren’t into that either. Pam and I have both made a living in this business, and still, there’s a part of that that’s just not natural.”
