Last week, during the ‘Jules Verne Adventure Film Festival’ in Los Angeles, was presented an exclusive preview of ‘Heroes Volume 3: Villains’.
Cameras and video cameras were not allowed but, as often happens, somebody managed somehow to film the preview… not the best quality, but we’re sure you’ll enjoy it as much as we did.

Kristin, at E!Online has some spoilers to share:

David Anders Is Sticking Around: Sources tell me Takezo Kensei (Anders) will move to the future and not by teleportation. He will be 400 years old! Which leads me to ask, Could Kensei and Claire be…related? The season is called Volume Two: Generations, after all, and well, they kind of look alike, and they do seem to have the same power. Hmmm…

West Might Be Shady: Nick D’Agosto (aka Peter Pan) says of what’s ahead for his character, “Now, all of the sudden it’s romance, romance, romance, and then from there, hijinks ensue. He’s kind of mysterious and dark, but has a real genuine side in him that wants to find out more about his power, and he’s deeply engaged in finding out more about Claire.” Is it just me, or is there something a tiny bit nefarious sounding going on there?

HRG Is Not Dying: You can quote me on that! By the way, Jack Coleman himself recently told me that the Bennets (as a family) don’t take well to being mucked around. You hassle one, you hassle all, and that means Mr. Muggles, too!

This week at NBC’s TCA (Television Critics Association) Press Tour party, tv.ign.com’s staff members were able to speak to Jack Coleman and Hayden Panettiere about their characters, Noah and Claire Bennet, and what’s to come in Season 2.

Here’s the highlights:

About shooting Season 2 so far, and the Bennets’ storyline:

Panettiere: “Wonderful. It’s been really, really, really fun. It’s been great.”

Coleman: “The Bennet family has relocated; I can’t tell you exactly where. It’s a new world. The secrets they keep from each other are new secrets. The old secrets have all been divulged. We’re not repeating old ground, but there’s old ghosts and old habits that are about to rear their ugly head in a very dramatic way.” [The entire family was together again at the start of the season] “in a very difficult, awkward circumstance, that they all have to try to deal with and it gets pretty sticky pretty quickly.”

As for the bigger picture of the Heroes world:

Panettiere: “We find everyone four months from where we left of. We’re not sure who’s alive and who’s dead, and yadda yadda. There’s a lot of things that have happened in those four months, so we’re going to find out about that. But Claire’s trying to be a normal girl again. She’s fighting to find that inner teenager in her.” [Claire will discover that] “the irony of it is no matter where you go, everything is kind of always the same. Everyone kind of looks the same.”

Cheerleader outfit during Season 2:

Panettiere: “Possibly. Possibly! I wouldn’t say goodbye to the cheerleading outfits just yet. She is ‘The Cheerleader.” [...] “except maybe this season, she might actually do some cheering! I’ve told the producers ‘We need to talk about this cheering thing!’”

About the success Heroes achieved in the past year:

Coleman: “Taking the whole entirety of the last twelve months, it is pretty staggering. It’s funny because it happens in increments so you don’t see the snowball building the way it has been. But nobody knew the show was going to be what it is. I think everybody suspected it had a chance to be successful, but not on its way to being an international brand. We’re doing great – all around the world it’s doing really well. We’re about to go all over the world to promote it. It’s ridiculously exciting.”

Big special effects and prosthetic makeup scenes in Season 2:

Panettiere: “Oh, I’m sure! She is the indestructible cheerleader, so you assume she’ll be at the front of most of that action stuff.”
