Heroes season-premiere sneak peeks are here! The new season of NBC’s superpowered drama launches Monday, Sept. 22 at 9 p.m., but your first look at six scenes from the two-hour relaunch of the epic series is right here!
I’m a little behind posting this. Straight from Ausiello’s mouth:
He’s alive! Or is he?
Sources confirm to me exclusively that Heroes has tapped acting vet Robert Forster to play Nathan and Peter’s presumed-dead pops, Arthur Petrelli.
Given Heroes‘ penchant for time travel, though, there’s no telling if we’ll see Arthur in the present, via flashback, or during one of Hiro’s little excursions. Another unknown: whether Arthur will use his powers (’cause you know he’s got ‘em) for good or evil.
Rumors of Arthur’s possible “resurrection” this season have been burning up the Internets for months. And while it’s not clear when Forster will first turn up, at press tour last month, his on-screen widow, Cristine Rose, hinted in this video interview that a bombshell would be dropped in the two-hour premiere on Sept. 22. “There’s a secret that comes out that if you’re a true fan, you’re just going to die,” she teased. “It’s a good Angela secret, and it’s [not about] her powers.”
Well, considering the first hour of the premiere was screened at Comic-Con, and, per multiple eyewitnesses, no such Angela secret was revealed, it’s safe to say the big reveal will take place in hour 2. Of course, whether or not said reveal is related to Arthur is also a big fat unknown. It’s all speculation, people!
What do you think? Is Arthur alive? Is Karen Sisco’s dad a good fit for the role? Are you as pumped about Heroes S3 as I am? Sound off below!
Thanks to ODI, here’s the official NBC press release that includes some details that were revealed during the season premiere showing of the first episode of Heroes Season 3 at Comic-Con.
With his abilities returned to him, serial killer Sylar (Zachary Quinto) relentlessly continues to accumulate other people’s abilities, which leads him to the Bennet house. Bound to a secret company with a keen interest in people like his daughter, “H.R.G.,” a.k.a. Noah Bennet (Jack Coleman), finds new purpose when his most dangerous, fantastic foes break out of custody and must be dragged back. Reeling from recent events and revelations, Claire Bennet (Hayden Panettiere), an indestructible high school cheerleader, struggles to define her identity and place in the world.
An act of heroism unveils an amazing secret about Niki Sanders (Ali Larter), a Las Vegas single mother with astonishing strength — and an unknown, hidden family. In Japan, Yamagato Industries heir Hiro Nakamura (Masi Oka) continues to use his ability to pierce the space-time continuum and manipulate time to leap into wild, international adventures with his best friend, Ando Masahashi (James Kyson Lee).
Nathan Petrelli’s (Adrian Pasdar) attempted assassination leads several Heroes on a stunning spiritual quest to explain his power of flight. For his younger brother, Peter (Milo Ventimiglia), the future and present collide as his many absorbed powers lead him to discover that the only way to end the catastrophic moment facing the world is to do the unimaginable. Meanwhile, their ruthless mother Angela (Cristine Rose) and her associates continue their ongoing, complex machinations to change the world from the shadows.
Former LAPD officer Matt Parkman (Greg Grunberg) is taught new ways to use his expanding ability to hear and manipulate other’s thoughts by an unlikely guide. Dr. Mohinder Suresh (Sendhil Ramamurthy), a genetics professor from India, takes a dangerous step into darkness as his research into those with extraordinary abilities living among us continues. Far from her Dominican Republic home, Maya Herrera (Dania Ramirez), who causes death when filled with fear or anger, begs Suresh to cure her – only to watch helplessly as he embraces his darker side.
Last November, Sprint & the NBC television show Heroes came together on the “Create Your Hero” contest, which put viewers in control of creating the next Hero from scratch. Over 4 weeks, viewers were then allowed to choose the specific attributes that make up a “Hero” (with a unique question each week exclusive for Sprint users only).
Now, as the third season of “Heroes” approaches, Sprint & the creators of the show have compiled all the attributes based on America’s answers, creating two new potential “Heroes.”
Now it is time to vote! Will it be Audrey, or will it be Santiago? The winning character will appear as the subject of a brand new Live Action web series written by the creators of Heroes, debuting around the November sweeps week.
I know some have already seen this, but I think the one that was going around before wasn’t that great of quality. So here it is. I know this is my first time seeing it. I was out of the loop for a bit, but I’m back, and will be posting some great stuff every day, so stay tuned!
Here are some videos of the Heroes Cast at Comic-Con courtesy of Watch with Kristin:

Here’s some great info I stumbled across on Cinema Blend about the new Heroes Season 2 DVD set to release August 26th, 2008:
It’s Saturday at Comic Con, which means lots of news about your favorite sci-fi TV shows along with the actual comic stuff. During today’s Heroes panel, our Josh Tyler got a little info about the DVD of season two, which might help those of you who were annoyed with how the season played out given the writers’ strike.
Apparently the online Heroes webisodes as well as several unaired episodes from last season will all be part of the DVD package, which comes out oh-so-soon on August 26. That means that fans can get a more complete story from the truncated season, which even the most die-hard believers found a little lacking. Hopefully that will all set things up nicely for the beginning of season three, when the Heroes devoted can get re-obsessed without worrying about a strike messing things up. So go ahead and pre-order the DVD, knowing you’ll be getting all the goods.
