Emily Wickersham has been added to NCIS as a full-time cast member in the role of Bishop.

Initially, Wickersham was only offered three episodes, but she will become a series regular filling the void of Cote de Pablo's Ziva, who is no longer a part of the show.

"Emily Wickersham's Ellie Bishop is proving to perfectly compliment the NCIS team," Executive Producer Gary Glasberg said in a statement. "Her energy and enthusiasm is contagious. Great things are planned for Bishop and we couldn't be more thrilled to have her on-board."

NSA analyst Eleanor "Ellie" Bishop is described by CBS as "a bright, educated, athletic, attractive, fresh-faced, focused and somewhat socially awkward new agent. She has a mysterious mixture of analytic brilliance, fierce determination and idealism. She's traveled extensively, but only feels comfortable at home."
