There's been some rumors that Kristen Bell won't be returning for Season Three of NBC's hit series, "Heroes." Superhero Hype! got a chance to talk to Kristen this weekend in Oahu, and it sounded like us she's definitely back as Elle Bishop.

"We're working it all out right now," Bell said. "The strike sort of threw a wrench into everything, but I think we're going back this summer and start airing in the fall."

Heroes to Return in 3 Hour Event!

Heroes will return in the US with a three-hour "event" in September.

Unveiling its scheduling plans for 2008-09, NBC promised a "major relaunch" to boost the third season of the cult series. The show last aired in the US in December before the writers' strike took hold, meaning it will have been off screens for almost nine months by the time it comes back.

NBC programming head Ben Silverman said the event would include a one hour clip/recap show followed by a two-hour season premiere.

The season is expected to air in two halves, each consisting of continuous blocks of more than ten episodes. The first will begin in September, with the second following in February.

Meanwhile, in the UK, BBC Two has scheduled the second season of Heroes to begin on April 24.

ooOOoo, three hours of Heroes. I can dig it :D

Yes, but it will only be available in September :cry: .

Scirwode

Yeah I have to admit I hate the breaks as well, keeps you wanting more!

Eh, for me its not about 'wanting more', its about wanting to see a complete story at one time. Very rarely (if ever) am I saying 'oh man, I can't wait for the other half of the season! The waiting is killing me!' Maybe I could say that for Lost, but thats about it.

You don't read half a book then put it down for a few months before you finish it.

This is why I purposely didn't see the first two LotR movies until shortly before the third was released.

Question: Any new scoop about the third season of Heroes? ? Sasha

Ausiello: Someone may be moving in on Mohinder's narrator turf. Tim Kring is said to be seeking an Australian Aboriginal actor in his fifties to appear in multiple episodes as a storyteller with great wisdom and a soft, soothing voice

Poor Mohinde:laugh:h:

Now for the bad news. The proposed stand-alone Heroes spin-off Heroes: Origins is officially dead--for now. Originally designed to expand the Heroes universe while the show was white-hot, Origins was slated to have guest directors and tell stories of new heroes, one of which would eventually be folded into the regular show.

"We were taxing our creative team to do too much around that," Silverman said at the NBC upfront presentation to advertisers in New York yesterday. "We wanted 35 Heroes [episodes] and 12 Heroes: Origins, each of which was supposed to be a mini-movie and backdoor pilot. We reached far and challenged our people, and we decided it was better to focus on keeping the Heroes mothership as strong as possible."

There goes Rappy's dreams of an Roth episode.

We have just been provided with the titles to the first four episodes of Season 3 of Heroes.

The season premiere being titled The Butterfly Effect is quite interesting because it references the concept of changing the past and future via time traveling.

Some other cool titles as well so check them out!!

* CBR has revealed that Eriko Tamura, who played Yaeko in Season Two of Heroes, will be returning when the show comes back. "I really enjoyed working on that show, it?s a great show and I am going back for the third season," Tamura told CBR News. "As soon as I?m back in LA [i'll begin shooting], but I can?t talk about it." She has also revealed that her return appearance will be in the present day. (Please, no more Fuedal Japan scenes!)

* Hayden Panettiere is filming a movie, so the first few episodes of Volume Three might be Claire-lite.

* Despite not being signed as a series regular, Kristen Bell (Elle) is expected to come back at some point and continue her arc.

* Kristin also revealed that Adam Monroe's name was once "Richard Sanders," implying he and Niki are related.

* When the show returns, the "plan" for "Volume Three" will be far different from what was originally conceived before the strike. Apparently some of the criticisms of the first half of Volume Two are being taken to heart....

* Expect to find out what powers (if any) Kaito Nakamura and Angela Petrelli have or had, when the show returns.

haha OMG. rappy, what did i say, what if nikki came back as eve??? well, your last spoiler just might make that true. I so hope this doesnt go all christian on us. I dont mind if they play stuff from the bible, but i better not be getting any golden rule lectures :p

Blu-Ray Announced!

NBC announced the that official release date for Season 1 and 2 of Heroes on Blu-Ray Discs is August 26th, 2008. This will also be the released date for Season 2 in standard DVD format.

So for those of you that bought Season 1 on HD-DVD, well now you can get it in Blu-Ray also and for those of you that have been awaiting the release of the strike shortened Season 2 DVD set, well you only have to wait 4 more months....

Season 3 Details Emerge

* Heroes Season 3 will have 25 episodes.

* Volume 3 Villains will have 13 episodes, which will be released in one go.

* Season 3 will return to the model of Season 1. The only difference is that Season 3 will start with much faster pace.

* Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder Suresh) is thrilled by what awaits his character this season.

* Angela?s power will be revealed and her role will be very important (we already knew that?)

* Our Heroes will have to save the world at least in two occasions this season.

* We should learn more about evolution of powers.

    • I don’t get why if I bought the game on the last get I needed to pay $40 to upgrade to the new version in the first place and people who love the game and play a lot would have upgraded already so this is just PR and a chance to grab new players who forgot the game long time ago I think
    • The term "use" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. "Use" can mean opening ChatGPT occasionally to ask for the definition of a word or information about a specific topic. If you frame the question around how many people use it as a daily driver in their work or personal lives, that number is a lot smaller. Those are the people who pay for AI. Nearly everyone else is happy to use it for free, but doesn't see enough value in it to pay for it.
    • No support for Windows Hello!
    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
