The Australian drama series NCIS: Sydney on CBS follows a group of officers from the Australian Federal Police and special agents from the Naval Criminal Investigative Services as they collaborate on cases involving US military and navy personnel.
The show is a spin-off of CBS’s NCIS franchise which also includes the original NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS: New Orleans, NCIS: Hawaii and the soon-to-be prequel NCIS: Origins. It is set in Sydney, Australia. The first season finale of NCIS: Sydney aired in January 2024.
There are still many unanswered concerns regarding NCIS: Sydney Season 2, like what will happen to Mackey and JD’s task force and the crimes that need to be looked into in the upcoming season.
Will NCIS: Sydney be Renewed For Season 2?
As yet, no announcement has come regarding the future of NCIS: Sydney and a second season has not been confirmed by CBS.
The actor who portrays JD on NCIS: Sydney, “Todd Lassance” discussed in a January 2024 interview how the enemy disclosure after Season 1 “opens the door” for various stories in Season 2 including more of the enigmatic enemy from Season 1.
He said:
“We had an understanding that there was going to be this through-line with the enemy [from the pilot]. One of the things I love about our series is that because it’s condensed into eight episodes, they can create these little breadcrumbs and little clues throughout that you don’t really realize are relevant to the case, and are insights into what’s going to be paid off at the end. I don’t think anyone would necessarily see it coming on that scale, and how it opens the doors to what the possibilities for a Season 2 could be.”
Along with sharing his wish list for Season 2, he also told what he wanted to see explored on NCIS: Sydney. He said:
“Obviously, I want [the finale’s big reveal] to come to fruition and we work all that stuff out, but I also want to get into action sequences again. I want to get into some shootouts, car chases, some big-scale action things, because that’s what NCIS is known for. I also want to explore the family dynamic side of things. This is a dream series for me because I get to play with the comedy, with that cheeky ‘ribbing each other’ element, and also be the straight cop/leader, and then I get to go with the emotional element of the relationship with the son and my ex-wife and the breakdown of that relationship. The sky’s the limit for us.”
As of yet, there is no confirmation related to NCIS: Sydney Season 2. Below, we provide some information about what we can expect from season 2.

When Will NCIS: Sydney Season 2 be Released?
If NCIS: Sydney gets a second season, it most likely won’t air until autumn 2024, approximately when the first season debuted. Based on the weather in Australia, Lassance stated that the middle of the year is the best time to film NCIS: Sydney. He said:
“Look, I’m not going to lie. Where we are — I live in the Gold Coast — it is hot today, but it’s always hot and humid up here. I love it because it’s so tropical. I think mid-year is usually fairly controlled because it’s sort of winter, but our winter isn’t like Georgia’s or anything. It’s not, like, snowing in Sydney, so we can still get the beautiful days!”
