The official trailer for the highly anticipated second season of “Quantum Leap” has just been released, giving fans a sneak peek into the intriguing leaps that await them. According to a news release, the upcoming season will feature leaps to various historical events such as Egypt in 1961, the Los Angeles Riots in 1992 Koreatown, a UFO investigation in 1949 New Mexico, and witch trials in 1692 Massachusetts.
Raymond Lee, Caitlin Bassett, Ernie Hudson, Mason Alexander Park, and Nanrisa Lee will be returning to reprise their roles, alongside new series regulars Eliza Taylor and Peter Gadiot. The focus of this season will primarily be on the leaps, as showrunner Martin Gero expressed a desire to explore the emotional space of the characters rather than solely relying on heavy plotlines.
Gero revealed that the leaps in the first season felt somewhat planned, with the protagonist, Ben, using celestial navigation to guide his travels. However, in the second season, Ben finds himself lost and at the mercy of the unknown force that controls the Quantum Leap program, echoing the experiences of Sam Beckett from the original series. This opens up opportunities for other characters to play a more significant role in assisting Ben during his time-traveling adventures.
The highly anticipated second season of “Quantum Leap” is set to premiere on Wednesday, October 4 at 8:00 p.m. on NBC, with streaming available the following day on Peacock. Fans can catch a glimpse of the exciting new leaps by watching the official trailer on YouTube.
