In her recent Watch with Kristin column, published by E!Online , Kristin took time to answer some questions by fans regarding NBC’s TV show Heroes

Here’s the three questions and Kristin’s answers

James in Memphis, Tennessee: Any chance of Jayma Mays returning to Heroes?
There’s no telling, since her pilot didn’t “go,” but don’t give up all
hope on Hiro Nakamura’s love life yet. Masi Oka tells me, “In season
two, though, there’ll definitely be something [romantic].” And on the
subject of Hiro’s love life, I can tell you that the possibilities are
opening up as we speak! Last week, I was told the producers have
written in a new recurring character they’re calling Princess
Keriyama. She first appears in the season premiere and I’m hearing
she’s a sexy little Japanese thing. I can just hear Hiro’s reaction
now: Yatta!

Ricky in Vidalia, California: I love Adrian Pasdar so much! Do you
have any Heroes scoop about his character, Nathan Petrelli?
Adrian tells me of Nathan in season two, “I think there’s gonna be a
little bit of a journey of redemption for the sins of past, for his
association with people who are probably less than good. I think
there’s gonna be some climbing up the moral ladder. He’s gonna have to do a little bit of work.”

Rhiannon in Crown Point, Indiana: Has everyone forgotten about
Christopher Eccleston on Heroes? He is one of my favorite actors, and I was so excited to see him on Heroes, but he’s been absent and no spoilers ever talk about him.
Don’t worryâ€â€?no one has forgotten about him, least of all the
producers. Creator Tim Kring says of a possible Invisible Claude
return, “We’re not making it official, but the truth is we would love
to have Christopher back. We are going to pursue it with the hopes we
can do it.”

According to reliable sources: Nathan, Peter and Sylar will be back during Heroes Season Two. One of the articles announcing the news comes from E! Online Kristin. Here’s in her own words:

What Lies Ahead
Spoiler Alert! I have it on good authority that both Milo Ventimiglia (Peter) and Adrian Pasdar (Nathan) will be back next season. I’m also 99 percent certain Greg Grunberg (Matt) will be back, but not so sure about D.L. (Leonard Roberts). I have a sneaking suspicion Linderman’s blood or heart may heal him, but that could just be my wishful thinking, for I love Leonard so.

Glug! Glug! The script called for Nathan to drop Peter into the ocean after he exploded, which should explain my “swim” reference in today’s chat. We’ll see next season if that is indeed where P.P. landed.

Spoiler Alert Part Deux! I’m told next season will begin four months into the future and two of the main characters will be in deep despairâ€â€?one having completely lost his memory (bring on the Bourne Identity storyline!) and the other having developed a major drinking problem. Told ya Sylar wasn’t this show’s only demon.

Did I Mention Hiro Will Be in 17th-Freaking-Century Japan? That’s just awesome! I’m hearing it could be as many as six episodes that he’ll spend there. Sans Ando.

SciFi.com posted details from season finale. The first-season finale will comprise the last three episodes of the year, so 3 weeks long Heroes Season Finale hype waiting for us.

Tim Kring, creator of NBC’s Heroes, revealed to SCI FI Wire that the first-season finale will comprise the last three episodes of the year, will bring all of the main characters together in New Yorkâ€â€?and will ultimately result in the death of one or more heroes. “The whole thing converges in New York, … and they’re all there, and all of them play a role,” Kring said in an interview at Wizard World in Los Angeles on March 17. “Even though some may feel like they’re less significant to the final event, when you analyze it, each one had to play that role in order for the final event to be solved, and so there really was a kind of destiny quality to them coming together and having each one fulfilling [one thing] and one specific role.”

Kring and company are completing the final draft of the season finale scriptâ€â€?episode number 23, called “How to Stop an Exploding Man”â€â€?which goes into production in a week and is slated to air on May 23. Meanwhile, production has begun on the previous episode, “Landslide,” Kring said.

As for the deaths? All Kring will say is that people die, including main characters. “The thing is, people knew fairly early on [that they might not make it through the season],” Kring said of the cast members. “Everybody, every actor that we’ve spoken to. I mean, … we’ve spoken about this idea, that on this show the story is king and everybody is in service of that story. It’s not a star vehicle. No, the show does not live or die by any one character. And so every actor should realize that at some point their ticket might come up. It’s both sad and exciting at the same time.”

Kring added: “It became very important that if we were going to set up the stakes of a villain and a conspiracy, the stakes would just not be real unless there were some deaths along the way. But the one caveat is, on a show like Heroes, you may not always [stay] dead. And with our ability to go back and forth in time, you may be dead, but you may show up on the show a few more times.”

The season finale will also set up the show for season two, Kring said. “There is a cliffhanger quality to some of the episode, but more in terms of what is the fate of some of our characters, as opposed to what the story is going to be,” he said. “Although we do have a one, I hope, shocking sort of spoiler for what season two is going to be. A premonition of … what we’re calling volume two.” Heroes, which airs Mondays at 9 p.m. ET/PT, returns with the last new episodes of the season on April 23.
