‘NCIS’ Alum Pauley Perrette Says She’s “Never” Returning To Acting: “I’m A Different Person Now”
Pauley Perrette is done with acting and said in a new interview she is in a different place now.
The NCIS alum left the CBS military police procedural in 2018 and stopped acting after her sitcom Broke was canceled in 2020.
In an interview with Hello magazine, Perrette said she was “never again” returning to acting, adding, “I’m not ungrateful for the benefits that it gave to me.”
“But I’m a different person now and I want to be here for it – the good and the bad and the painful,” she said. “I want to be me all the time, and it takes a good amount of courage for me to say that to myself but it’s authentically how I feel.”

Perrette played Abby Sciuto on NCIS for 15 years and left the show in 2018. After starring in Broke for one season before CBS canceled it, Perrette has been focused on producing documentaries, including 2023’s Studio One Foreverabout an LGBT nightclub in West Hollywood, California.
“At this point in my life I have this deep need to find authenticity in everything, and being an actor, especially at certain points in my life, was a great escape; it’s like a drug because I didn’t have to be me, I could be somebody else. My character didn’t have all of the problems that I was having,” Perrette told Hello.
