"It was Harmon who called to tell Austin Stowell he got the job playing a younger version of his iconic character on NCIS: Origins."

Stowell recalled he was skiing in an area with spotty reception when he learned Harmon wanted to speak to him. He took off his skis, jumped in his Jeep and raced down the highway to a place with reliable service.

Harmon is still said to be 100 per cent invested in the show, despite his ‘so-called retirement’.

"Mark was very complimentary”, Stowell reported. "He said, ‘It's been you from the second you walked in the room.’”

"Word is it was Mark who pushed Austin to wear blue contacts to copy Gibbs’ intense blue stare", said the squealer. "Obviously, Mark's still 100 percent invested in the show, despite his so-called retirement."
