Here is another great casting news from Heroes, John Glover is joining to cast as Sylar’s father. As you may know, John Glover is well known for his role at Smallville – Lionel Luthor, father of Lex Luthor…
Sources confirm to me exclusively that the struggling NBC drama has tapped John Glover, a.k.a. Lex Luthor’s dad, Lionel, to play Sylar’s father.
“When Sylar meets his father, he’s going to see a path ahead of him that he doesn’t want to take,” reveals a Heroes insider. “He has a lot more in common with his father than he realized.”

great news!
Love him! This is awesome!
nice!
Amazing news!
Extremely good actor! Good for Heroes that NBC hired him!
Looking forward to see him in forthcoming vol.4!
Struggling NBC drama?? since when? I thought that this was top show in the 18 to 49 segment…. I knew that they were over budget by a lot but didn’t think that they were struggling.
Lets just hope that sylars dad doesn’t turn out evil as well.
path syler dosen’t want to take, what if syler can give people abilites and thats what his fr dose, philantiphy for the gifted
Good idea fr ted, but doutful one. Not likely that would happen…
I think they should hire writers from kyle xy..
And that is the worst idea anyone has ever had. Ever.
i can’t tell you how this news fills me with joy!
love heroes. love John Glover’s style – can’t wait for season 4!!!!!!!
Sylar isn’t dead?
why do they always make it seem like Sylar has been killed when hes not dead the next season. I really liked them turning him good but they turned him back evil. I didnt like Tracy in this season, get rid of her. She doesnt have any real point of being on the show. Neither did her first character as Nikki. Wheres barbara?? I really dont like how they made Nathans character turn out. If they are going to continue with his character being like this then they should have Peter have the guts to take him down. It doesnt make any sense that the govt has kidnapped all of them but Nathan b/c he has an ability too???
i agree–they wasted tracey’s character. she was interesting at the start when she had this awesome power and the way she looked in angela’s vision but as you well know her character has been turned into something unnecessary. oh…if only jessica would come back, they should never have made her just another split personality–in the first season she appeared to be so much more…. ….
Maybe the president has special power(s) too ?
hohoho…. this will be fine, can;t wait for season 4..
i believe sylar’s father gain his ability when Jor-El posses his body.. ups…
