'Quantico' star Priyanka Chopra says airport officials always ask who is the terrorist

The success and popularity of “Quantico” has meant some trouble for cast member Priyanka Chopra. The actress revealed that she is almost always stopped at US airports by officials, who have one question on their mind – who is the terrorist?

Chopra plays the role of a new FBI recruit named Alex Parrish, who is accused of masterminding a terrorist attack on US soil. The TV series mainly focuses on the character trying to prove her innocence by uncovering secrets and attempting to identify the real terrorist.

“I always get stopped by security and immigration,” Chopra said. The officials apparently teased the actress by saying that they would only stamp her passport if she tells them who the real terrorist is on the show, The Wrap reports.

The most recent incident was at Los Angeles airport. Chopra decided to have some fun with the regular question. “Hey, don’t ever ask a brown girl that in an American airport!” the actress shot back at the officials who were holding back from stamping her passport.

Chopra also talked about the action sequences in “Quantico.” “Production is a lot of work. Nobody sent me that memo when they came to me to do television,” Chopra said. “Alex, you know, she’s saving the world!”

The TV series has been renewed for another season by ABC. Alex will return later this year to take on new challenges and uncover new mysteries. The exact release date is yet to be announced.

Some of the main cast members of “Quantico” include Josh Hopkins (Liam O’Connor), Aunjanue Ellis (Miranda Shaw), Jake McLaughlin (Ryan Booth), Johanna Braddy (Shelby Wyatt), Yasmine Al Massri (Nimah Amin), Tate Ellington (Simon Asher), Jacob Artist (Brandon Fletcher), Graham Rogers (Caleb Haas), Anabelle Acosta (Natalie Vasquez), Mark Pellegrino (Clayton Haas) and Li Jun Li (Iris Chang).
