The world of NBC's Quantum Leap revival is getting a lot bigger in Season 2. In anticipation of the show's return early next month, the network has confirmed two new series regulars and debuted three first look images from the upcoming batch of episodes that will take the temporally-displaced Dr. Ben Seong (Raymond Lee) to historical happenings in 1961, 1978, and 1992.

Quantum Leap Season 2 adds new series regulars

NBC announced today that Eliza Taylor (The 100) and Peter Gadiot (Yellowjackets) have been added to Quantum Leap as brand-new series regulars for the sophomore season.

Taylor will play Hannah Carson, a "complex young woman, who may be more than she appears," reads the official description provided by the network. The character will make her Quantum Leap debut in the third episode of Season 2.

Gadiot, meanwhile, is set to play Tom Westfall, a former special forces soldier and a high-ranking US Army Officer in the realm of Army Intelligence. "Thoughtful, centered, a spiritual kind of warrior who both men and women admire, but whose humility keeps him from ever being arrogant. Tom will take on a crucial role overseeing the project."
