Hemel Hempstead girl wows her co-stars in NCIS: Tony and Ziva
A new 10-part series NCIS: Tony and Ziva, will premiere on Paramount Plus on Thursday, September 4, when the first three episodes will be released.
The series stars Michael Weatherley as Tony DiNozzo, Cote de Pablo as Ziva David and young British actress Isla Gie (from Hemel Hempstead) as their daughter Tali.
This spin-off of the long running NCIS is set in Europe where Tony reunites with his wife Ziva who had previously been thought to be dead. It’s an action-filled romantic drama, which perfectly suits Isla Gie, now 14 years old, who is a top-class gymnast and world champion dancer.
Isla is set to appear in eight of the 10 episodes. Isla’s role in NCIS: Tony and Ziva is just the latest in a long line of theatrical successes.
She can also be seen as Skirlet in the third season of sci-fi epic Foundation which is out now on Apple TV with the final episode releasing on September 12.
Earlier this year Isla starred as Jason Statham’s daughter Merry Cade in the action feature film A Working Man. This had a successful theatrical release worldwide and is now streaming on Amazon Prime.
