Heroes

As previously reported, Brea Grant is coming aboard the cast of Heroes in the villainous role of Joy.

Now, we've received word that Bruce Boxleitner has snagged a recurring role that was originally going to be modeled after John McCain. We're guessing this is the character that - originally, at least - was to be known as Senator Robert Malden.

Bruce Boxleitner has appeared in the shows Cold Case and Crossing Jordan.
