Heroes: Origins

Heroes: Origins is a six-episode mini-series that will air at an unspecified date and time, though it was originally scheduled to air during the second season of Heroes while the show is in hiatus. Each episode will introduce a new character--usually an origin story. Though each episode will be a standalone story, the characters and other aspects of the world of Heroes may make appearances in Origins. Tim Kring said that if viewers express an 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 Halloween, 2007, NBC has indefinitely shelved Heroes: Origins, reportedly due to the looming writer's strike. [1]
