Quantico is the ABC thriller series, running from 2015 to 2018, in which Priyanka Chopra starred as FBI recruit Alex Parrish — the first time a South Asian actor headlined an American network drama. The role made her a household name in the United States and proved a Bollywood superstar could anchor US television. It remains the hinge of her career story, the proof-of-concept that later film roles, production ventures and honors like InStyle’s Woman of Impact Award were built upon.
