The CW’s ‘Pandora’ Series Premiere: How You Know The Cast

Head to the year 2199 with The CW’s new summer sci-fi action series, “Pandora,” which premieres on the network tonight.

“[The show’s] about a resourceful young woman who has lost everything but finds a new life at Earth’s Space Training Academy where she and her friends learn to defend the Galaxy from threats, both alien and human,” according to the synopsis. “When secrets about the nature of her own identity begin to surface, she must uncover the truth, and whether she will be humanity’s savior or the instrument of its destruction.”

With “The 100” Season 6 continuing to air new episodes on Tuesdays and “The Outpost” Season 2 airing on Thursdays, it’s the season of sci-fi and fantasy on The CW, and this new show is going to fit right in, while also standing out.

Before episode 1, titled “Shelter From The Storm,” premieres, find out how you might already know the “Pandora” cast:

Priscilla Quintana as JAX (a.k.a. Pandora)

This will be the actress’ first series regular gig, but she’s had guest spots on shows like “Lethal Weapon” and “Masters of Sex.” Quintana was also in the 2018 thriller “Traffik,” starring Paula Patton and Omar Epps.

After playing the role of Will on the teen Canadian equestrian drama, “Ride,” in 2016, Dench went on to star as Sam Warner in the Sky YA series “The Athena.” Acting runs in his family as his great aunt is none other than Oscar winner Dame Judi Dench.
