The Ghostbusters and Oz vet will co-star with Raymond Lee in the pilot, which will serve as a sequel series to the original 1989-1993 Quantum Leap series. Hudson will play Herbert “Magic” Williams, 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.
