NCIS star Sean Murray has spoken out about his future on the show, saying no character is guaranteed to be safe in the long-running procedural.
Murray has been playing the role of Special Agent Timothy McGee on NBC's military police drama since 2003. Speaking about his long stint on NCIS, the Hocus Pocus star said he still feels anything can happen on the show.
"I think we learned this with things that have happened on the show over the years... No-one is quite safe," he told People.

"Obviously, being here 21 years, [I] have enjoyed, immensely, being a part of this show and continue to be incredibly grateful to be a part of this show, but you never know what's going to happen," he continued.
However, Murray explained the cast is having a "good time" on set and no-one "is itching to go elsewhere at the moment".
"A really strong ship was built very early on, and the show developed and founded strengths in a different kind of way than most procedurals," he continued, discussing the show's formula – adding that fans connected with NCIS and its characters "early on".
