We recently reported that due to the imminent writers strike in the US, Heroes producers have put a stop on all work and filming on Heroes: Origins, a planned spinoff to the main show.
It seems that due to the same strike, the people behind the insanely popular sci-fi show are also considering prematurely ending their second season with an episode that is due to air in the US on the 3rd of December.
Heroes second season differs from the first in that instead of concentrating on one main story arc, each episode will now contain two or three smaller arcs. A number of these arcs and storylines were due to be wrapped up in the December 3rd show, and show insiders have revealed that a new ending is being filmed and the producers are seriously considering ending the second season at this point and carrying all remaining episodes over into the next season.
Although this may be a huge disappointment to many Heroes fans, the show will actually fare better than many series who will have to end series in the middle of storylines and destroy any continuity they may have planned for the season.
The writers strike is due to begin on Monday the 4th November, so Heroes writers have until then to complete the new ending for the series.
