Heroes Storyline Will Travel to Canada
Reader Emma sent me this article in the TorontoSun.com that I thought our Canadian readers will get a kick out of. According to Heroes showrunner/producer/writer Tim Kring, “a ‘major city’ in Canada will be part of the storyline in the new season of Heroes.” Kring doesn’t mention which one, and writer Jeph Loeb wouldn’t elaborate, but although a part of the second season story will technically “take place” in Canada, it won’t actually be shot there, as all the show is shot on L.A. sets, even the New York scenes.
Here’s the full article from the TorontoSun.com:
A “major city” in Canada will be part of the storyline in the new season of Heroes.
Tim Kring, the creator of the popular TV series which airs on Global and NBC, made the announcement yesterday through a pre-taped video message that was played to fans at a public gathering in Toronto.
“Actually, the storyline is going to take us to a certain part of Canada,” Kring said.
“Obviously, we’re going to shoot it here in L.A. But the story line will take us to a major city in Canada.”
Jeph Loeb, the executive producer of Heroes, was in Toronto on Thursday and yesterday, as were cast members Zachary Quinto (Sylar), James Kyson Lee (Ando), Noah Gray-Cabey (Micah) and newcomer Dania Ramirez (Maya).
“Well, if (Kring) didn’t reveal (specifically which Canadian city it’s going to be), then I can’t do that yet,” Loeb said. “But it is a major metropolis, and it actually is important.
“It’s one of the many mysteries that you’ll have.”
