** There are some glaring discrepancies regarding Samantha in the script. In the original series, Sam fathers her while in the body of Abigail's fiancee, she is born in 1967 and eventually works at Project Quantum Leap. In this script, Sam fathers her while in the body of Abigail's defense attorney, she is born in 1979 and has never heard of the project.

''Quantum Leap: A Bold Leap Forward'' is an unproduced screenplay written by Trey Callaway in 2003. It was meant to be the pilot for a revival of the cult sci-fi show ''Series/QuantumLeap''. Callaway met with ''Quantum Leap'' creator Donald P. Bellisario several times. Bellisario apparently approved of the script but for reasons unknown changed his mind and the project did not move forward.

!!''Quantum Leap: A Bold Leap Forward'' provides examples of:
* ActorAllusion: Towards the end, Sam Beckett leaps into a man named Ted Archer. At the time the script was written, Creator/ScottBakula (Sam) was playing Captain Jonathan Archer in ''Series/StarTrekEnterprise''.
* TheCameo: Samantha briefly talks to her mom Abigail on the phone. Had the script been produced, Creator/MeloraHardin would likely have been brought back to reprise the role.
* CharacterCatchphrase: Subverted as neither Sam nor his daughter utter the trademark "Oh boy" at any point but Al does.
* SeriesContinuityError:

In this script, Sam fathers her while in the body of Abigail's defense attorney, she is born in 1979 and has never heard of the project.
** The script specifies that Sam and Al have not seen each other in 20 years. At the end of the original series, Al's present was said to be 1999. This would put the present day scenes of this script in 2019. However, Samantha is said to be in her early twenties. If she was born in 1979, that means the present day is roughly the same time the script was written (i.e. the early 2000s).
* SpinOffspring: The script centers around Samantha Fuller, Sam Beckett's daughter who was introduced in the final season of the original series.
* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: Al's wife Beth has died since the original series ended.[[note]]The opposite would be true in the eventual revival with Beth returning as Al's widow.[[/note]]
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Al's assistant Sheldon "Guppy" Gupta is this to Gooshie, the computer programmer from the original series.
