"Quantico” Season 1 Episode 10 Spoilers: Alex Torn Over Spying on Friends [Watch]
The upcoming episode of “Quantico” cuts between tension filled days at the FBI academy and a frantic hunt for a bomber.
Episode 10 of Season 1, eponymously titled "Quantico," shows how an emergency disciplinary hearing has resulted in some big secrets being spilled.
A teaser for the episode shows Alex (Priyanka Chopra) incredulous before her authorities.
“You want me to spy on my own team?” she says, unable to fathom what is asking of her.
Chopra, the 33-year-old former Miss World who plays Alex Parrish on the hit ABC action series, was a Bollywood star way before she landed the lead role on “Quantico.” But, according to showrunner Josh Safran, the star's fame had nothing to do with why she was eventually cast.
"She just came in like any other actor on the day we were auditioning the role of Alex," Safran said.
As reported in IndieWire, Safran said they were not really going after stars for the show, and he did not actually even know who Chopra was.
Similarly, actor Josh Hopkins, who plays Liam O'Connor on the series, did not understand how big of a star Chopra was until he saw all the fans running up to catch a glimpse of her during their first day of filming.
"I'm ashamed to say I hadn't heard of her,” he said. “It took one minute of Internet investigation to realize, she has 11 million Twitter followers.”
"Everywhere we shoot, people come out and scream her name," he added. "When she shows up they go crazy."
The actor remarked that he would love to walk the streets of India with Chopra, so that he might see what it's like to be in public with someone on a Beyoncé-level of fame.
The next episode of “Quantico” airs Sunday, Dec. 6 on ABC at 10 p.m. ET.
