Heroes star Greg Grunberg revealed on his Twitter account today that Battlestar Galactica actress Kate Vernon will make a guest appearance in Heroes sometime this season.
Greg tweeted:
#Kate Vernon from BSG is now on #Heroes — can’t wait for you guys to see her. The 5th!! — can’t wait for you guys to see her. The 5th!!
NBC are obviously desperate for viewers. First Claire’s lesbian kiss, now they have announced that there will be a death in the new season.
The identity of the doomed charcater has not yet been made public, but Eonline have revealed that it will be a male and will be one of the original cast.
Hayden Panettiere has admitted that she is becoming increasingly frustrated with the media speculation that surrounds her life.
The Heroes actress says that she finds it hard to be friends with men, as the media jumps to so many conclusions.
“I can’t stand next to anyone of the opposite sex without being linked to them or dating them. It is so frustrating,” Showbiz Spy quotes Panettiere as saying.
Remember Charlie, the cute waitress who stole Hiro’s heart way back in season one? Well she (played by Jayma Mays of course) will be returning to the show for one episode next season.
Charlie was a victim of Sylar’s and as the terminally ill Hiro travels back and forward through time, trying to complete his bucket list and put right things he did badly in the past, it stands to reason that he would want to save his almost girlfriend. Given that Mays is only returning for one episode, I don’t fancy his chances much.
Heroes actor Greg Grunberg has admitted that he has been asked to return to Lost for its final season. I bet he was offered a much larger fee this time round!
Grunberg appeared in the pilot of Lost as Seth Norris, pilot of Oceanic 815. He also returned for a brief cameo in season four.
“If NBC will allow it, I will go back,” Grunberg told TV Guide Magazine.
Zachary Quinto is one convincing actor! The Heroes star found himself being questioned by cops this week whilst he was filming a video for comedy website, Funny or Die.
Zach was pretending to hold up L.A. bakery Kiss My Bundt when a concerned citizen called the police.
Bakery owner Chrysta (how American is that name?) Wilson told Eonline:
“Heroes” is set to get more sinister this season with the addition of Robert Knepper as a series regular.
Knepper is best known as the troublesome T-Bag on Prison Break. His new character Samuel aka “Carnival Barker”, will be an evil Earth-moving ringleader of a travelling carnival, who attempts to recruit more of our favourite heroes into his group.
Tim Kring has been speaking at the Heroes Comic Con panel this week and he revealed that season four of the show will see the ‘Heroes’ returning to normal life.
He believes it will make the show more understandable and believable to see Claire in college and Peter as a paramedic, Nathan as a senator and so on.
Sylar continues his unusual partnership and begins to have an unexpected identity crisis, as the epic American drama continues. Hiro and Ando take measures to bring down Building 26, while Matt’s new-found fatherhood changes his priorities.
Elsewhere, Nathan sets a plan in motion to right the wrongs of his government operation.

When Sylar comes face to face with his long-lost father, the reunion proves to be what he least expected, as the epic American drama continues. Elsewhere, after receiving a tip from Rebel, Claire must decide if she will help her sworn enemy, Eric Doyle, evade capture.
Heroes casting director Natalie Hart has revealed that the first person to be cast in the hit US sci-fi show was Masi Oka, who plays Hiro.
In an interview with the official Heroes magazine Natalie admitted that they started the search for Hiro first as it was such a specific role. She said:
“Masi might have been the first one because we knew it was a little bit limited. By limited I mean we needed someone who could be endearing, a good actor, and needed to fluently speak Japanese. It’s not like you have a large talent pool, like when you are looking for a handsome 30-year-old there are a ton of those guys in LA. When you have something as specific as Hiro, you are going to show producers 15 to 20 people, tops.”
