Renewed: Quantum Leap

The US reboot of Quantum Leap has been renewed for a second season.

The new version picks up 30 years after the events of the original, with Dr. Ben Song (Raymond Lee) hired to restart the Quantum Leap project started by Dr. Sam Beckett. But after Song makes an unauthorised leap into the past, his team in the present struggles to learn why he did it while he seeks to put right what once went wrong.

“We’re leaping into a second season thanks to the incredible work by our cast, producers, writers and everyone who has played a role in giving this iconic NBC series a new life,” said Lisa Katz, president of scripted content for NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “As we continue to bring audiences to our must-watch dramas, it’s gratifying to know Quantum Leap will have a prominent place next season both on our NBC schedule and next day on Peacock.”

The series also stars Ernie Hudson, Caitlin Bassett, Mason Alexander Park and Nanrisa Lee.

It is due to screen in Australia on Seven network.
