in New York City for the Heroes World Tour
During the Heroes world tour, some of the cast members gave us some hints about what’s to come in Season 2 (If you don’t want to know…stop reading now). The Season 2 premiere will be set four months after the events in the season 1 finale. Here are a few clues to what you will see come September 24:
“I’m just trying to get some more power,” teased Zachary Quinto, who plays Sylar, whose trail of blood led off screen in the season finale, after he failed to make New York go “boom.” While the bad guy will continue his evil ways — slicing the heads off “Heroes” and fleecing their special abilities — there are changes ahead.
“The point at which we left the story in season one, and the point at which we begin in season two are vastly different for my character, and for all of the characters, really,” said Quinto…
Sylar isn’t the only one facing changes this season. According to James Kyson Lee, Hiro and Ando will face some new challenges as well:
“There’s going to be an interesting channel of communication,” said James Kyson Lee, who plays Ando. “I can’t reveal what, but it’s going to be such a great way of storytelling. What happens in one timeline may affect the other. For Ando, I think you’ll see him spending more time at Yamagato. Does he want to stay there? Probably not, after experiencing all that he did in season one.”
Episode 8 will find Hiro and Ando reunited and will fill in the gaps in the four months we missed between the end of Season 1 and the point where Season 2 starts off.
As for other characters - well Claire will be trying to “blend in” at a new high school and may have a little romance in her future. Micah will be meeting some new people, including some new family members. Hiro, of course, will be facing off with Takezo Kensei back in 1671.
New cast member, Dania Ramirez, joined other Heroes on the New York leg of the World Tour. She will be playing Maya, a Dominican woman with developing super powers. Maya flees to the US with her brother to find out what is happening to her.
Also new to the cast are Kristen Bell as Elle, a character with ties to Peter and Dana Davis as Monica, a New Orleans-based hero.
The writers say that no one is immune from being killed off (shall we start a dead pool?).
“This is not a show about stars,” Loeb explained. “This is a show about the show. Everyone has the same conversation when they come on. Wherever the story takes the writers and takes Tim is what serves that task. Keeping it very unexpected is part of what our audience demands of us. If all we’re doing is continuing with the same characters, then we’re the same as every other show. We have a policy in the writers’ room that no one is safe.”
