EXCLUSIVE: There has been a change of plans for theFBIspinoff with a CIA twist in the works atCBS.
But the new spinoff could still join the mothership on the 2025-2026 schedule with a straight-to-series order.

With casting continuing but no one set, it was pushed to Episode 20, then to 21.
Actors held for the third role in the potential backdoor pilot were released, I hear.
Reps for CBS andFBIproducers Wolf Entertainment and Universal Television declined comment.
That is still very much a possibility depending how the casting negotiations pan out, I hear.
FBIs CIA spinoff is executive produced by Wolf, Hudgins, Perlman, Chasteen and Wolf Entertainments Peter Jankowski.
