Heroes Volume 3 : Villains


Recommended Posts

Question: What is up with Kristen Bell and Heroes? It’s been ages since we’ve heard anything. Steven

Ausiello: She's back on the set shooting her multi-episode arc as we speak! Woo-hoo! In other Heroes news, look for the action (or at least part of the action) to shift to a comic book shop in Athens, Georgia around Episode 11.

I hope they do tho they weren't that brilliant!

The Season 2 DVD box set came out here in the UK last week and I thought I?d let you know some details on the best of the special features which is the Alternate episode 11 and original Volume 3 story that got scraped.

According to the feature the original plan was for the virus vial to hit the floor and the virus to get out. We get to see alternate footage of this happening and Peter, Matt and Nathan heading straight to the local sheriff to tell him that a deadly virus has been unleashed but he doesn?t believe them so Matt uses his power to make the whole station listen to Nathan and take orders from him. A storyboard sequence shows Peter using his powers to cause anavalanche to block of the area to stop people crossing a bridge to get in andout of the town. Nathan then goes on TV to issue a full warning to the US but collapses mid speech like in the final version of the episode but this time he?s simply been affected by the virus. Nicky?s story ends the same as it did in the final version of the episode and the only other thing really worth mentioning about the footage is that Claire watches the TV broadcast of Nathan telling the US about the virus and is shocked to see Peter alive standing next to Nathan.

The series creators say that the original idea was for Volume 3 to be based on the unleashed virus and the Heroes coming together to try and stop the virus spreading and the world turning into the one Peter visited in the future. Not much is said on how Sylar would fit into it all despite still having his character get his powers back the same as in the final version of the episode. They do say though that there would have been a big conspiracya bout the company trying to cover up the virus by killing loads of people.

The most frustrating thing about the feature is that they don?t talk about the footage featuring Sylar, Angela Petrelli and the escaped captives of level 5, maybe because they plan on using that for the new series. Interestingly though they do show a very quick compilation of clips from that bit of footage that feature some interesting shots including what looks like a dead Sylar with a girl that looks like Clair (but wearing her old cheerleading outfit) being held up against the wall by Benjamin Knox Washington (Jamie Hector) in the background, another shot shows a dead Hiro impaled by his own sword, and the most interesting shot is of Jessica, Adam, Matt?s dad, and Benjamin Knox Washington (Jamie Hector) looking very menacing. Captures from those shots are included.

Here are the latest set pictures for Season 3 of Heroes, which feature Kristen Bell playing Elle and Jack Coleman as HRG.

As reported earlier this week Bell, began filming her little story arc for Season 3 and that the production team has already completed the first 8-9 episodes for the season. So look for this little scene between Elle and HRG to occur towards the end of Volume 3 (Villains).

Our source informs us that HRG and Elle have some sort of disagreement and after getting upset she hails a cab.

The Heroes Season 2 DVD set includes the alternate ending (Volume 2) with the Shanti Virus spreading. Also, included are deleted scenes revealing Kaito Nakamura's powers and a family visit while Nathan was at the hospital after his burns.

In the deleted scene we see Matt also use the force to make sure everyone listens to Nathan.

Here is a set video that shows a stunt with Peter's stunt double falling off a building and Claire and Elle running to see what happened.

Claire and Elle are in the same outfits as the set photos from a couple of days ago.

Also if you look closely there is a nice looking DNA strand statue outside the building and perhaps this is part of The Company or Level 5??

Ausiello just spilled the beans out and said that, there?s a strong possibility of Seth Green & Breckin Meyer is joining Heroes cast. They?ll not be regular cast members, since they?re pretty busy with Robot Chicken, but there will be multi-episode story arc.

Real-life BFFs and frequent collaborators Seth Green and Breckin Meyer are nearing a deal to join the cast of Heroes for multi-episode arcs, sources confirm to me exclusively.

As I first teased in this week?s episode of Ausiello TV, the Robot Chicken duo will play Atlanta-based comic book nerds aficionados who cross paths with (and perhaps serve as advisors to) one of the Heroes.

Isabella in Rio de Janeiro: Ola, Kristin. I'm dying here to learn more about Ali Larter's character on Heroes. Niki, Jessica, Gina, Tracy? Is she a different personality or is she an entirely different person now? Please, give us something! XOXO Beijinhos

Ola, Isabella! Tudo bem? E...that's all the Portuguese I've got, sorry. Ali's new character is named Tracy Strauss, and she's a political adviser to the governor of New York. Is Tracy connected to Niki? Well, a reporter sure thinks that the nekkid pictures of "Niki" on the Internet are not just a case of mistaken identity. Also, when we pick up the story, Tracy is angling to get Nathan Petrelli a pretty good government job. There has to be a tie between Niki and Tracy in there somewhere, and if you want to know exactly how, email Mr. Linderman, because he knows, and I think he might be the mastermind behind the whole switcheroo...

Wanda2Saints: But wait, isn't Linderman dead?!

Yes, but he is not gone! And Nathan will be the first to see him.

Claire in Santa Fe, N.M.: Kristin, I need Heroes info!

A favorite character's father will be losing his head?and not just in the temper-tantrum, poor-impulse-control way. Dad's skull will no longer be attached to dad's spine.

    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
