Heroes: Origins is a six-episode mini-series that has been canceled to strike by the WGA, though it was originally scheduled to air during the second season of Heroes while the show is in hiatus. Each episode was to introduce a new character--usually an origin story. Though each episode would have been a standalone story, the characters and other aspects of the world of Heroes may make appearances in Origins. Tim Kring said that if viewers expressed interest in a particular Origins story, that character may be considered to be included in Heroes proper. (NBC going supernatural this fall). At Comic-Con 2007 it was announced that Kevin Smith would write and direct the first episode of Heroes: Origins. Other writers include Eli Roth (who will also direct), John August, Michael Dougherty, and Jeph Loeb. As of October 31, 2007, NBC has indefinitely shelved Heroes: Origins, reportedly due to the looming writer's strike. [1]
