Caitlin Bassett, a multi-talented actor who has lived many lives, is now starring in NBC’s “Quantum Leap” as a woman who travels through time and space. The 32-year-old actress, who spent seven years in the U.S. Army as an intelligence analyst, attended law school and later pursued acting. Her curiosity and passion have led her down various paths, with failure being an acceptable outcome.
Bassett reflects on the valuable experiences and skills she gained during her time in the military, including discipline, work ethic, and perspective. She believes that as long as no one is dying, it’s a good day.
In the new iteration of “Quantum Leap,” Raymond Lee stars as the leaping scientist, and Bassett plays his guide in the form of a hologram, a role previously played by Dean Stockwell. The sci-fi series is set decades after the original and involves solving dilemmas by jumping between bodies.
