Quantum Leap season 3 will continue NBC’s rebooted sci-fi show, though the network has been quiet around the future of the franchise. The 2022 Quantum Leap reboot returned viewers to the world of the original 1989-1993 show, this time focusing on physicist and new leaper Dr. Ben Song, played by Raymond Lee. The reboot has had two seasons so far which have been received well by returning Quantum Leap fans and new viewers in the NBC audience alike
It’s unclear what could await in Quantum Leap season 3, though first two twist-filled seasons of the reboot already guarantee it will be another rollercoaster for Ben, the central character replacing Scott Bakula’s Sam Beckett on the original Quantum Leap. Since season 2 included an unexpected time-jump in the narrative it’s clear that NBC and reboot creators Steven Lilien have no qualms about keeping viewers on their toes, meaning speculation on what Quantum Leap season 3 could even be about, and who will return for the cast, is high.
Most Recent Quantum Leap Season 3 News
There hasn’t been any updates given by NBC on Quantum Leap season 3 yet. However, with the second season still ongoing this isn’t overly concerning. It’s highly likely that NBC will provide some news on the future of the Quantum Leap reboot once the second season finale has aired in November 2023.
Season 3 Of The Quantum Leap Reboot Isn’t Confirmed
NBC hasn’t renewed Quantum Leap for season 3 yet. The first and second seasons were filmed back-to-back. It’s likely that NBC are waiting to see how the second season fares once it concludes in November before deciding whether to renew or cancel Quantum Leap for season 3.
Quantum Leap Season 3 Release Date Prediction
Until NBC renews the show it’s difficult to predict the Quantum Leap season 3 release date. If the second season performs well and a third is confirmed it’s likely the network will aim to have Quantum Leap season 3 premiere in the fall 2024 season, though at this point any predictions are speculative.
Quantum Leap Season 3 Cast
The cast of Quantum Leap season 3 is expected to return many returning faces for the first two seasons of the reboot. Raymond Lee (Kevin Can F**k Himself, Here and Now) has been received well as a replacement protagonist from Scott Bakula, who starred as Dr. Sam Beckett in the original. It’s almost guaranteed Lee will return to play Ben in the next season, and joining him in the Quantum Leap season 3 cast will be:
- Caitlin Bassett (V Is For Vodka, The Back Page) as Addison Augustine.
- Mason Alexander Park (The Sandman, Cowboy Bebop) as Ian Wright
- Ernie Hudson (Oz, Ghostbusters) as Herbert “Magic” Williams
- Eliiza Taylor (Neighbours, The 100) as Hannah Carson
- Peter Gadiot (Yellowjackets, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland) as Tom Westfall
- Walter Perez (Fame, Queen Sugar) as Leaper X
There’ll also of course be many single-episode guest cast members in Quantum Leap season 3 as the main cast leap to different time periods. Until the show is renewed, however, it’s impossible to predict who NBC will bring on board for the season 3 Quantum Leap cast.
Quantum Leap Season 3 Story Predictions
There haven’t been any details revealed about the Quantum Leap season 3 story, and until the second season of the reboot is concluded it’s difficult to predict where the show could go. The narrative of the Quantum Leap reboot already changed massively between seasons 1 and 2. Once the season 2 finale airs in November possible story arcs for Quantum Leap season 3 will become clearer, though if his plotline isn’t resolved it seems likely that the mystery of Walter Perez’s Leaper X will continue to play a part.
