Priyanka Chopra in Quantico [ABC]
The fall television season is less than two months away.
To heighten anticipation, ABC shared a synopsis and cast list for the second season of its “Quantico.”
“When season two begins, Alex finds herself at ‘The Farm,’ the CIA’s mysterious training facility,” says ABC of the upcoming season. “As Alex navigates the dark world of espionage, far different and more dangerous than what she’s learned before, she’s pulled into the center of a deadly conspiracy that not only threatens the lives of this country’s citizens, but the lives of countless others across the globe.
“This conspiracy calls everyone around her into question, be it new faces from the CIA or old ones from the Bureau. Prepare yourselves for another thrilling and heart-stopping adventure loaded with surprises you won’t see coming.”
Regular cast members include Priyanka Chopra as Alex Parrish, Blair Underwood as Owen Hall, Aunjanue Ellis as Miranda Shaw, Jake McLaughlin as Ryan Booth, Johanna Braddy as Shelby Wyatt, Yasmine Al Massri as Nimah and Raina Amin, Russell Tovey as Harry Doyle, Aaron Diaz as Leon Velez and Pearl Thusi as Dayana Mampasi.
“Quantico” premiered last season to considerable buzz — and solid ratings. While its live+same-day ratings ultimately cooled, it remained a stellar performer with DVR users. Its live+7 ratings often doubled the live+same-day numbers.
“Quantico,” which will continue to air on Sundays at 10PM, returns on September 25.
