"Quantum Leap" fans, are you ready for a possible revival?
Show creator Donald Bellisario said on Saturday at Stan Lee's L.A. Comic Con that he's just wrapped up a feature film script for the 1989 to 1993 cult sci-fi show, Entertainment Weekly reported.
Here's what Scott Bakula had to say about that controversial #QuantumLeap finale at @StanLeeComicCon https://t.co/UJtUp6HiKk #LAComicCon17

The show starred Scott Bakula as Dr. Sam Beckett, who can leap through time, and frustrated some with its 1993 finale, which didn't bring Beckett home.
"I just finished writing a 'Quantum Leap' feature," Bellisario said, according to EW. "I don't know what's going to happen with it, but I did write it."
Bakula and Bellisario also defended the controversial finale.
"I was proud of that episode," Bellisario said on the Comic Con panel. "Everybody was."
"It was a great episode," Bakula agreed. "Last episodes are always controversial."
Fans on social media seemed interested in seeing more "Quantum Leap." Netflix, are you listening?
Yes, please. THIS. NOW. My all time favorite TV show. I’ve been hoping for this for years. #QuantumLeap https://t.co/Eze4J2utXL

Though not everyone wanted to go back in time.
Wondering if Quantum Leap was very much a product of its era. I have no real yearning to see it resurrected.
