James Kyson Lee Becomes Regular Cast Member
Matt Richenthal at .Here's most casting news from the set of Heroes, but this one involves a familiar face from season one:
James Kyson Lee has revealed that Ando Masahashi will become "a full-fledged regular" on the show in the new season.
That's something people can latch onto — the idea of facing danger knowing you're mortal and don't have super abilities. Ando plays the perspective of an audience member, and asks a lot of the questions viewers would ask."
The Seoul-born, Bronx-bred Lee says that as far as socializing with the rest of the Heroes cast, "We try to when we have time, but there's not a lot of time. We work at such a frenetic pace. One week I had to shoot four different scenes with four different directors. It was insane."
We're glad to have Lee back. He's at least an old, comfortable name in the face of so many fresh actors joining the program, such as Dianna Agron and Dana Davis.
