Kristen in Heroes #1: Cast Kristen, Save The World.

Kristen will star in "Heroes" this fall on NBC.


{Please post all spoilers in the Spoilers & Spec thread!}


The announcement was made by "Heroes" executive producer/creator Tim Kring, who said: "This was not easy to pull off. But since we're an ensemble show, with many arcs playing out through the year, we found a way to jump into a small window in her schedule. I pitched her the idea we have for the character, which she loved, and we're off and running."

"Kristen Bell is a very special actress," said Universal Media Studios President Katherine Pope. "With so many studios chasing her in both film and TV, we're beyond delighted that she chose to star on our show. Viewers are going to love her in this role. The depth and complexity that she brings as an actress is a perfect fit for 'Heroes.'"

Kristen Bell is returning to TV!

The Veronica Mars cutie just signed on to star in a multi episode arc of the upcoming season of NBC’s hit Heroes.
Bell was being courted for several TV shows, including ABC’s Lost, but ended up with the peacock network. Smart move. Lost has lost momentum but Heroes is still hot.

Bell will make her Heroes debut some time in October. She’ll play Elle, a character described as a sexy, mysterious young lady who has ties to the supposed death of Peter, H.R.G.’s past and the future of Claire. Elle will kick off her arc by committing a serious crime, though it’s unclear whether she’s good or bad.

“This was not easy to pull off,” said Heroes creator-exec producer Tim Kring. “But since we’re an ensemble show, with many arcs playing out through the year, we found a way to jump into a small window in (Bell’s) schedule.”

Should spice things up!

It would be nice if she had to wear a sexy superhero costume.

Media frenzy part 2:

My superfan worlds colliding -- Kristen Bell & Heroes
Quote:
NBC issued an announcement today that actually made me exclaim outloud, as I pondered the idea of two of my favorite things coming together.
It's like peanut butter and chocolate, except less fattening.
[...]
Just didn't think it was possible for me to look forward to the Sept. 24 return of Heroes any more than I already am.

NBC has scored a major casting get for "Heroes," landing former "Veronica Mars" star Kristen Bell for a guest-starring role in the coming season
Kristen Bell Coming to Heroes!
Quote:
Of all the guest stars or new regulars added to the Heroes season two cast - from Dianna Agron to David Anders - it’s hard to imagine any garnering more excitement than this one
Mind...Blown

Kristen Bell is my Hero!
Quote:
Now this is the best news I have heard so far about Bell. I have myself a little TV crush on Kristen and I was heartily disappointed when Veronica Mars was cancelled. It looked for a while like her role as the narrator on Gossip Girl would be the only taste we would get.

But combine her role in Fanboys (something I am also excited about) and an appearance on my favourite TV Show Heroes, I am in geek heaven and Kristen Bell is my tour guide!

Take that, "Lost"! Despite rumors that former "Veronica Mars" star Kristen Bell could be headed to the mysterious island, she's decided to join the cast of "Heroes" instead.

And I thought Heroes couldn’t get any better. Kristen Bell is set to join the cast of Heroes this October!

Thank God Kristen didn’t end up on Lost. If there’s one show that is perfectly suited for a fangirl like Kristen, it’s Heroes. And judging by the description of Kristen’s character (“sexy”), I have no doubt that her appearance will be TiVo-worthy. Can’t wait!
