There is some really exciting
Heroes casting news floating around the web today.
EW.com’s Michael Ausiello is reporting that real life best friends “and frequent collaborators Seth Green and Breckin Meyer are nearing a deal to join the cast of
Heroes for multi-episode arcs.” (

According to Ausiello’s sources Green and Meyer “will play Atlanta-based comic book
nerds aficionados who cross paths with (and perhaps serve as advisors to) one of the
Heroes.” (

Heroes, the show often lacks in the acting department. Hopefully Green and Meyer will be able to breathe some life into whichever established
Heroes’ characters they are working with.
One reason I really like these two actors is that I’m obsessed with their most recent collaboration,
Robot Chicken. The stop motion animated show created by Green and Matthew Senreich is amazing, and while the two friends starred in some classic 90’s movies this is by far their best work. Aly can’t stand the show, but I still stop to watch it any time it’s on the Cartoon Network. Green and Meyer voice many of the show’s characters and it is some of the best pop culture humor out there.
