SECOND PROMO of HEROES: VILLAINS + cast updates

We also have some updates on Brea Grant and the character she’ll play during Season 3.
Full size video
and updates on the cast of Heroes Season 3
after the jump:
On a previous article we announced the casting of Brea Grant as “Joy the Speedster”…and, ironically, that character’s name changed -very quickly- to Daphne.
Here’s the details, courtesy of AOL:
She’s not just fast. She’s very fast. Meet Daphne, the speedy new
character on NBC’s Heroes, who plans to give the show’s superhumans
- especially time traveler Hiro and his sidekick, Ando - a run for
their money when she debuts on the popular NBC series’ upcoming
third season, which went back into production last week. “I’m
stealing a secret that’s been kept in Hiro’s family for a long time
that he’s just now found,” Brea Grant told The Associated Press
during a break in filming on location in a high-rise building in
downtown Los Angeles. “He stops time right as I grab it, but in
that second it took him to grab it, I almost make it out of the
office.” Grant doesn’t know much about her mysterious new
character. Daphne’s superpower allows her to operate at three
speeds and leave a supersonic wake in her path when Hiro stops
time. Grant’s not sure where Daphne is from, but she does know the
Speedster - that’s what she calls herself - has been on her own for
a long time. “Her character is supposed to be Hiro’s Joker,” said
Masi Oka, who plays Hiro. “Batman has The Joker. Hiro has Daphne.
This is the season where Hiro finally finds his arch nemesis, and
it happens to be this Speedster. I kind of equate it more to Wile
E. Coyote and the Road Runner, except Daphne says more than
‘meep-meep.”‘ The third season is titled “Villains,” and will pick
up immediately following the events of the second season, which was
cut short because of the writers strike. Viewers will learn about
the fates of several characters when the show returns in September,
including who shot Nathan Petrelli.

I shot Petrelli…but I didn’t shoot the deputy 
you know it could just be me but it looks like in the promo vid that peter is wearing a black cap and looks exactly like the shooter at the end of season 2….but how could that be possible if peter was with nathan?
hmm….maybe future peter comes back into the scene? there was mention that future hiro comes back….maybe there’s an agenda (if you need the clip reference the 8 second glimpse on the 1st video)
Cant f**ken wait!! and it looks official that niki will be coming back…woo hoo!!!
133 days remaining huh? That will make Oktober, 30, 2008 
Can’t wait man 
@Dylan: Indeed, the man who shot nathan looks like Peter with a cap in that scene! :O But… why would (future) peter shoot his own brother? Because Nathan will become a villain…? :S
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG I CANT FREAKIN WAIT FOR SEASON 33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo
But… isn’t Adam Munroe supposed to be Hiro’s nemesis?
right nikki is back woo!!!!! can’t wait for season 3 . OMG , Damn, Heroes you need to come back , i’m dying here !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i knew it looked like peter i saw this on tv and paused it and said peter lol
Did anyone else notice Cristine Rose (Angela Petrelli) in the background????
I love her! Angela has been my favorite since they killed Eden. I really wish they’d make her a main character . . . .
I cant wait for the fall to continue to watch the show.I hope they bring back EDEN MCMAIN!
so the big question is: did future Peter shoot Nathan?
from the clip, it may seem so and probably is true
here are some predictions as to why.
1. Nathan will be a villain in the future ( unlikely, but still a good possibility because “in every hero
there could be a villain” )
2. By exposing what Nathan and others can do, it will create another future like the one we’ve seen in season 1 except worse because worse is always more exciting ( best answer because Bob and the company doesn’t want it to be revealed for a good reason, perhaps he knew what the future will be like. normal people can’t handle this truth and rather than seeing them as heroes, they will go against them and want to lock them up. it will be a huge discrimination against them and they have hide their powers. BUT the villains will want a full out war against the normal people thinking that they are the “extraordinary people” therefore should be the dominate ones. While the heroes help save mankind by going against these villains and saving the normals hoping that the normals will accept them and live happily ever after. but they failed miserably and that is why Peter comes back to stop all this from happening and shoot Nathan to save the world. hahaha “Shoot Nathan, Save the World” instead of “save the cheerleader, save the world”
yes a lot to read, sorry =]
oh btw it seems like this plot is the X-Man 3 the movie plot… I have nothing against Heroes coping X-Man, but come on original ideas would be nice
SEASON 3 WILL HAVE A HUGE SURPRISE!!!!
STAY TUNE HEROES FANS!!!!
BUT HERE ARE A FEW CLUES:
PRISON
DEATH
whos chaba and how does he/she kno this just asking coz i dont wanna get my hopes up on story plots that r just som1s ideas
wow!! cant wiat!
