This just in-
that “Quantum Leap” reboot NBC has been eyeing has reportedly found their lead! Raymond Lee (“Mozart in the Jungle,” “Kevin Can F*** Himself“) will play Dr. Ben Seong, spiritual successor to Scott Bakula‘s Dr. Sam Beckett 30 years later.
Steven Lilien and Bryan Wynbrandt (“La Brea“) will write and executive produce this project. Original “Quantum Leap” creator and EP Don Bellisario, as well as EP/co-narrator Deborah Pratt, are involved as well.
Dr. Seong is described as “a world-renowned physicist working on a time travel project known as Quantum Leap.”
We’re all still kind of hoping Bakula at least makes a cameo. We’ll let you know what we hear about this and other news.
Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
