Quantum Leap is returning to NBC for its second season next month. The network has released a new preview for the time travel reboot series. Two new faces have also been added to the series’ cast, per Deadline.
Peter Gadiot (Queen of the South) and Eliza Taylor (The 100) are joining Raymond Lee, Caitlin Bassett, Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, and Nanrisa Lee as series regulars. The NBC reboot follows Ben Song (Lee) as he restarts the project started by Dr. Sam Beckett nearly 30 years ago.
The following was revealed about the roles the new additions will play:
Gadiot portrays Tom Westfall, a U.S. Army Officer, former special forces, who is now high up in Army Intelligence.
Taylor will play Hannah Carson, a complex young woman who may be more than she appears.
In the second season teaser, time-traveling Ben goes way beyond Sam’s travels. He experiences the L.A. riots in 1992, the Salem Witch Trials in 1692, Area 51 and UFOs in 1949, Egypt in 1961 as a spy, the future in 2050, and much more.
Quantum Leap returns on October 4th. The preview for season two is below.
What do you think? Are you a fan of this NBC reboot series? Will you be watching the season premiere next month?
Love the show but they have bumped it for special’s confusing the audience and messing with the ratings!
Another lazy reboot no one needs gets renewed… cause for celebration amongst the viewing audience for whom writing talent and acting talent are as unknown concepts as the basic rules of time travel.
They Have To Many Cast Members Already
Yes looking forward to watching Quantem Leap!!!!
I’ll be looking forward to that.
A useless reboot like so many are. No wonder why Scott Bakula did not want to get involved in this project.
I don’t watch it
Seems they forgot the #1 rule of Quantum Leaping… you can only travel back as far as your own lifetime. Yeah, Sam had that one episode where he was his own great grandpa in the Civil War or whatever, but that was in the last season which also had all the crazy Elvis, JFK, and Marilyn Monroe stuff.
But seriously.. 1692 and the Salem Witch Trials??
