James Kyson Lee’s Ando Masahashi regular on Heroes!

1 Comment 18 July 2007

James Kyson Lee Ando Masahashi

James Kyson Lee’s Ando Masahashi becomes “a full-fledged regular” on “Heroes” in the new season, the actor is glad to report.
As far as he is concerned, Ando, who started off as the rather reckless and feckless pal of Hiro (Masi Oka) on the NBC hit, “has gone through one of the biggest growth transformations of all the characters. He started off thinking Hiro was living in a fantasyland, but slowly became a believer. Now he’s started spearheading some of their actions. He’s an important part of this mission, even though he doesn’t have powers right now. That’s something people can latch onto — the idea of facing danger knowing you’re mortal and don’t have super abilities. Ando plays the perspective of an audience member, and asks a lot of the questions viewers would ask.”

The Seoul-born, Bronx-bred Lee says that as far as socializing with the rest of the “Heroes” cast, “We try to when we have time, but there’s not a lot of time. We work at such a frenetic pace. One week I had to shoot four different scenes with four different directors. It was insane.”

TV Squad Interviews James Kyson Lee of Heroes (aka Ando)

Here is a recent interview with James Kyson Lee (Ando)! He reveals more about what’s going on in the show, his character Ando, and Ando and Hiro’s journey to save the future:

Ando — James Kyson Lee of Heroes
Heroes!
James Kyson Lee has a job plenty of people would love to claim: starring on NBC’s Heroes, one of the best shows of this season, and currently riding a wave of both critical and fan-based praise. However, if you’d asked him a few months ago if he thought he’d be where he is now, he wouldn’t have been able to tell you. Unless he’d been able to peek at a painting or two by Isaac Mendez.Although Lee started out playing sidekick Ando to Masi Oka’s Hiro, he’s definitely come a long way since then. He’s gone from cubicle neighbor, to reluctant participant, to butt-kicking undercover security guard guy, all in the space of one season. He’s also get even tougher before this season is over. It could be argued that of all the characters on the show, Lee has undergone the biggest change, that is if you don’t count Future Hiro.

A group of us caught up with Lee during our visit to the set of Heroes, and they let us interview him in Isaac’s New York artist’s loft. Surrounded by piles of comic books and Isaac’s paintings, he filled us in on what’s been happening with Ando, what will happen in the future, and where his own career is going.
