Raymond Lee is living the dream of a Hollywood actor on Quantum Leap.
For each episode, Dr. Ben Song’s character leaps into a new person, taking in their persona, looks, and habits. For an actor, it’s like a new project in each episode.
Now the series moves into season two, the returning cast includes Raymond Lee, Caitlin Bassett, Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, and Nanrisa Lee. The new season regulars include Eliza Taylor (The 100) and Peter Gadiot (Yellowjackets).
Taylor plays “Hannah Carson,” a complex young woman who may be more than she appears to be. She will make her first appearance in episode three. Gadiot plays “Tom Westfall,” a U.S. Army officer with high access to Army Intelligence and former special forces. He takes a crucial role in overseeing the project as a thoughtful, centered, spiritual kind of warrior.
Here is the description of the series:
It’s been 30 years since Dr. Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator and vanished. Now, a new team has been assembled to restart the project in the hopes of understanding the mysteries behind the machine and the man who created it.
