If Michael Weatherly ever decides to retire from acting, he has a capable replacement in the form of his adorable son, Liam.
In a photo the former NCIS star shared on Twitter last year, the nine-year-old stole the show by dressing up like his famous father.
Liam was wearing Michael’s thick-rimmed glasses and smiling for the camera in the photo.
He captioned the photo, which also included his wife, Bojana Jankovi, “Liam Weatherly tries on #Bull glasses @BullCBS.”
Michael’s lookalike son was adorable in the photo, mimicking his father’s character on the show, which is loosely based on Dr Phil’s early career.
The father-of-three took on the role just a few months after leaving NCIS.
He played fan favorite Tony DiNozzo on the Mark Harmon-led series for 13 seasons between 2003 and 2016, which means he hasn’t taken a break from work in nearly two decades.
With his Bull glasses on, Michael’s son looked exactly like him.
With Bull now completed, Michael could return to NCIS, which would be a treat for his fans.
Steven D. Binder, the show’s executive producer, is enthusiastic about the idea. When asked about a DiNizzo comeback in a recent interview with TV Insider, he was upbeat.
“I would absolutely love to do something like that,” he said. That will be determined by Michael Weatherly.
Michael has appreciated having ample time to travel with his family.
“He and I have talked about it over the years, and he was always on Bull, and [since] he was on Bull, it just seemed weird and not right,” he added, adding that if it does happen, it won’t happen anytime soon.
According to him, “the last conversation I had with him was that he’s going to take some time off and rest because he went from a very difficult schedule on NCIS to headlining his own show for six years, through C0V1D.”
Following the cancellation of NCIS: Los Angeles, there has been some excitement in the NCIS world, with rumors of a potential spin-off show starring both Michael and his former co-star Cote de Pablo.
