Quick Heroes News: August 2, 2007

Milo Ventimiglia: More details about Milo’s new movie “Pathology”, as well as more details about his character. From here: Milo plays Ted Gray, an anti-hero. His chief rival is the sociopath Jake played by Michael Weston. But Ted has to watch himself, Jake’s girl Juliette (Lauren Lee Smith) has got her eye on him and that won’t bode well with Ted’s fiancée, Gwen (Alyssa Milano). Ted begins to descend into darkness and decadence with the encouragement of Jake, Juliette, and Griffin (Johnny Whitworth) and has to battle back for redemption.

Zachary Quinto: Entertainment Weekly has an article about the casting of Zachary Quinto as Young Spock in the upcoming Star Trek 11 movie. Included in the article are reactions to the casting news from Quinto’s Heroes castmates, as well as an interview with J.J. Abrams about why he decided on Zachary instead of the dozens of more well known names being bandied about for the role. His response? “The same thing you’re looking for when you want to get married. You just have to know. You can’t intellectualize this. It just has to feel right on every level. And I have to tell you, I want to marry Zachary Quinto.” Um.

Finally for today, is that Claire and West on the set of Heroes? I’m not sure if the tall guy is Nick D’Agosto, who plays West (the hair looks the same), but that’s definitely our Hayden.
