As reported by BuddyTV, Bruce Boxleitner will be joining the Heroes cast this fall. You most likely know him as Captain John Sheridan on Babylon 5, but he’s also appeared in a number of other shows.
His role appears to be a politician of some kind. The role was originally modeled after Senator John McCain. The character has changed course a little bit, but is believed to still be political.
Superhero Profiles has posted a few videos showing Heroes cast members excitement about the upcoming season 3.
The first is with Adrian Pasdar (Nathan Petrelli) and Christine Rose (Mama Petrelli):
The second is with Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder Suresh) and Dania Ramirez (Maya Herrera):
We told you about the three-hour season premiere that is coming, but we didn’t have a date. Now we do.
NBC has announced that Heroes will premiere on Monday, September 22. From 8-9pm will be the clip show, looking back at the past two seasons. Then from 9-11pm will be the two hour season premiere. It’ll be a late night, but it should be good!
Back in the early days of Heroes, there was a 34 chapter webcomic that was produced and then sold. They intended to keep producing the webcomic, but the writer’s strike messed everything up.
Now, according to Mark Sable (via TV Squad), the webcomic is returning this summer. You’ll get to see many of your favorite characters, along with some new ones. However, the focus will be on teams of agents from the Company that haven’t been seen before.
Heroes is slated for a full run this fall, so this will only help to whet the appetite of rabid Heroes fans everywhere.
According to Heroes TV, Sylar will be back to his old tricks — slicing open heads.
Apparently, he’ll slice the head of one of the main stars, and we’ll get to see what he does after the slicing is done. This will happen sometime within the first two episodes. I wouldn’t be surprised if the character is able to come back to life (Hiro’s time travel?), but it should make for an exciting start to the season!
NBC has posted a short video promo for season three. Check it out!
Wow, this sounds great! According to heroes-tv, the season three premiere will be a three hour show!
The first hour will be a recap of last season, which we all need after such a long time off. Following that will be the two hour premiere. Very cool!
A speedy new character by the name of Daphne (played by Brea Grant) is joining the Heroes cast this fall. She’ll be Hiro’s arch nemesis, able to operate at three speeds.
Even Brea doesn’t know too much about what her character can do, other than the fact that Daphne has been on her own for a long time.
This season of Heroes is titled “Villains”, and will pick up where Season 2 left off.
