WATCH: The crossover promo looks so dramatic!
The short teaser shows quick flashes from the episode, including agents from each branch looking very serious before an explosion erupts at a mysterious location while a voiceover says: “Whatever we’ve stepped into, it’s big.”
Worringly, the clip also sees two characters, who look to be potential agents, seemingly being held hostage. The two agents, who have sweat patches down their shirts, can be seen wearing black bags over their heads while tied to chairs.
In the final moments of the 20-second trailer, teams from all the three branches can be seen gathering together, with Vanessa Lachey’s Jane Tennant saying: “Call the Guinness Book of Records, we have the most senior field agents at a crime scene.”

The crossover event will air in January
The upcoming three-hour event will see fan-favorite agents from each show join forces to solve a very personal and high-stakes case involving a mysterious hitman.
The official synopsis reads: “Team members from the different NCIS divisions come together in Washington, D.C., to celebrate a beloved FLETC professor who taught multiple members of each of the squads.
“On the eve of the celebration, the professor is found dead of an apparent suicide, though his former students immediately suspect foul play.
“While investigating the prof’s past, the agents uncover a mysterious hitman, and the more they dig into it, the bigger the targets on their backs become. When members of the teams are suddenly kidnapped, all the agents must come together to take down the assassin and save their own.”
