As the writers strike messed up the filming and writing schedual for season 2 of Heroes all this gossip should be for season 3 and/or future seasons, if all goes smoothly.

Ricky Gervais has revealed he will appear in the second series of Heroes, not surprising since the first season has recieved a huge positive response from veiwers. It is not yet known which character he will play, as the series has only recently started filming. Source Channel 4 (UK TV) Ricky has not filmed Heroes yet and will be hopefully appearing in a future season, as the second is almost finished filming and ready to be aired.

Christopher Eccleston appears in the first season as a guest star, after quitting Doctor Who so as not to be type cast he enters a role not dissimilar to that of The Doctor. Christopher also joins the cast as a main character in the third season.

The producers of Heroes offered Christopher Eccleston two different roles, Sylar and Claude. Christopher declined the role of Sylar because he thought it was a cliché for European actors to play villains in American culture.

Upcoming there is also a spin off of Heroes, called Heroes Origins, Which will introduce one new character per episode, and viewers will choose which character will join the main cast at the end of the run.
