Brea Grant Talks Heroes Season 3

By now if you follow or have any interest in Heroes at all, you know that the Powers That Be are introducing yet a new villain to the show in the form of Brea Grant, who will be playing a character who possesses superspeed name Daphne. Entertainment Weekly recently spoke with Grant, and here’s what she told them about her character on the show, including how long she’ll stay (pretty long), and who else she’ll be making contact with in the Heroes-verse besides our buddy Hiro.

“Anytime I come into a room, basically you see this wave of air blown on everybody and then I’m just standing there because I’m so fast you can hardly see me when I move,” she explains of her superpower. “You meet my character for the first time when I steal something from Hiro that he needs for his quest this season.” That doesn’t mean, however, that Hiro is the only hero she’ll encounter. “Her interest is not specifically with Hiro,” Grant says cryptically. “I think that’s why she’ll run into a lot more people — she’s feeling a lot of stuff toward someone else. That’s all I can tell you!”

So will she always be a villain on the show? Maybe, maybe not. She added this:

“I start off pretty bad, but there are some times when I have to make choices, you know, you can be worse, you can be better,” Grant says. “It’s just this whole idea of being a bad guy. You’ll see some of your favorite characters have to do some things they don’t want to do.”
