Quantum Leap to star Ernie Hudson and Raymond Lee.
The 1990’s popular sci-fi series Quantum Leap is getting a reboot from NBC. It has been announced via Deadline that Ernie Hudson will play alongside the lead Raymond Lee in the reboot. The series is set in the present time and has the following synopsis:
“It’s been 30 years since Dr. Sam Beckett, played by Scott Bakula, 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.”
Lee will play Dr. Ben Seong. He is a world-renowned physicist working on a time-travel project known as Quantum Leap who gets stuck in the late 1980s with amnesia after using the technology. Hudson will portray Herbert “Magic” Williams. He is a Vietnam veteran and head of the time travel project at Quantum Leap. Using a bit of politicking and his military know-how to keep the Pentagon at bay, Magic buys the team some time to rescue Ben but expects answers once he’s back.
