As the NCIS season 11 premiere approaches, more spoilers have been revealed.

The first episode will be titled Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, according to TVLine. The episode will introduce a new character named Ozzy, and his role is to obtain information about an unwanted intruder and destroy a hacker.

Fans will also discover the state of Leroy Jethro Gibbs, who is seen holding a sniper rifle out of an apartment window during season 10's finale.

The show's viewers might be upset to hear that one of the show's main stars, Cote de Pablo, is calling it quits. She has played agent Ziva David for eight seasons and her character, which debuted during season 3, has been a crucial part of the investigative team led by Gibbs and Anthony DiNozzo.

She will, however, return in the fall to properly end her character's role on the CBS hit show.

"I've had eight great years with NCIS and Ziva David," she said in a statement on Tuesday. "I have huge respect and affection for Mark [Harmon], Gary [Glasberg], Michael [Weatherly], David [McCallum], Rocky [Carroll], Pauley [Perrette], Brian [Dietzen], Sean [Murray], all of the team and CBS. I look forward to finishing Ziva's story."

CBS and CBS Television Studios also had some words for the star.

"We respect Cote's decision, thank her for being an important part of the NCIS team and for eight terrific years playing Ziva David," the joint statement said. "Cote and CBS share a great respect for the NCIS audience, and we look forward to working with her and the producers on appropriate closure in this charter of Ziva's story."

While it's clear she will return for the upcoming season, it's unknown for how many episodes.

NCIS is television's most popular series with a viewership of 22.7 million. Season 11 premieres on Sept. 24.
