In the Season 3 premiere of Quantico, Alex Parrish (Priyanka Chopra) is living a picturesque life in Italy when she’s pulled away by Ryan Booth (Jake McLaughlin) to help recuse Shelby Wyatt (Johanna Braddy). Shelby has been kidnapped by a notorious international arms dealer who goes by the name The Widow. The Widow sends her henchmen to find and capture Alex in New York but reminds them “we need her alive.”
The Widow is portrayed by Tony Award winner Jayne Houdyshell (“The Humans”, 2016). Houdyshell is also recognized for her roles on The Good Fight (Renee), Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (Judge Ruth Linden), American Odyssey (Rose Offer), and in the films Downsizing (Matt Damon’s mother), Maid in Manhattan (Carmen) and Garden State (Mrs. Lubin), among others. Quantico airs Thursdays at 10pm on ABC, right after Station 19.
