Quantico fans should get ready to say hello to a slew of new faces.

Alex Parrish will switch alphabet agencies when Quantico returns for season 2, meaning old players will get the boot as the FBI's brightest star moves to the CIA. The original class of NATs kept us guessing all last year, and while their stories are not yet done, series creator Josh Safran will keep viewers on their toes with a little fresh blood this fall.

"We have new stories to tell, and there will be returning cast members, but season 2 is definitely more of a new novel than the next chapter," Safran told Entertainment Weekly. It's like, instead of a sequel that continues the story, [we follow] the character who's been through what they've been through but further down their road. So yes, there will be new people, new circumstances, but also returning people."

The premiere is still months away, but Quantico has already dropped casting info for two the series' new regulars.

First up is Lydia. Described by TV Line as "Jessica Jones by night, Jessica Chastain in Zero Dark Thirty by day," the multi-lingual newbie will be played by an African American woman in her late 20s.

While ABC has yet to announce Lydia's casting, the network recently tapped Being Human's Russell Tovey to portray Harry Doyle. Presumably with ties to the CIA, Doyle is described by The Hollywood Reporter as being "part Thomas Crown, part grown-up Artful Dodger...[who] is just as likely to seduce your husband as he is to pick his pocket when it's over."
