Former NCIS star Cote de Pablo will soon return to television and the first look of her on The Dovekeepers set was revealed.

A video posted by Variety on Monday, shows the set of the CBS miniseries in Malta and presents de Pablo in costume. The 34-year-old stands with producer Roma Downey and co-star Rachel Brosnahan wearing a blue gown and a gold headpiece. Each woman is holding a white dove in their hands.

"I'm back again on CBS," the actress says before the three women release the doves.

De Pablo will star in the upcoming series as Shirah, a "sensual, mysterious and fiercely independent single mother with uncanny insights and a quiet and mysterious power," according to CBS.

"We are thrilled to have Cote de Pablo starring in The Dovekeepers," Downey said in a statement. "Her talent, strength and beauty will light up the screen in the important role of Shirah."

This is the first TV role for the actress since she unexpectedly departed from NCIS last year. De Pablo played agent Ziva David for eight seasons and her character, which debuted during season 3, had been a popular character on the hit show.

Yet, there's no hard feelings between NCIS executives and the actress. "We've been saying it all along - we're thrilled that this Dovekeepers project has come up for her," showrunner Gary Glasberg told TVLine.com in July.

The Dovekeepers is expected to premiere in 2015.
