The NCIS actor donned a red button-down shirt and dark-colored shorts as he headed to grab groceries.

Mark, 72, wore flip-flops and squinted while walking the sunny streets.

He was rocking shaggy grey hair and holding something in his hand.

No one joined him on his trip to celebrity hotspot Erewhon Market.

Mark’s sighting came just days before his casting in Freaky Friday 2 was confirmed.

COMING BACK

Disney released the first behind-the-scenes photo from the Freaky Friday 2 set on Monday.

The pic showed Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis sitting in front of their trailers holding hands.

Jamie, 65, held her free hand up in a rock and roll gesture while Lindsay, 37, smiled sweetly.

Filming on the highly-anticipated sequel has begun.

The actresses will reprise their roles as Anna and Tess Coleman.

Few details about the plot have been released at this time.

Fans do know that Anna will have a daughter in the film, as well as a soon-to-be stepdaughter.

“Tess and Anna discover that lightning might indeed strike twice,” the film’s official synopsis reads.

Disney has confirmed that the film will hit theaters in 2025.
