Thank you to all fans who submitted an entry to this edition of the Heroes Caption Contest (the only one on the Web!).
The photo below was a challenge but many readers were up for it. None more so than “Giri,” who submitted this week’s funniest caption. It’s hard to blame the Haitian for feeling like a third wheel, isn’t it?

Haitian: “How I hate the third wheel!”
Milo Ventimiglia looks even more snappy than usual in a suit by Just Cavalli in the February 2008 issue of Interview Magazine.
Can one be any more handsome?!?

Hayden Panettiere is expanding her acting resume.
With free time from Heroes, the actress will star alongside Julia Roberts in Fireflies in the Garden.
From there, Reel Movie News reports that the 18-year old actress has signed on to play the title character in I Love You, Beth Cooper, a teen comedy produced by Chris Columbus.
As Beth Cooper, Panettiere will once again hold pom poms as a hot cheerleader who is the object of a nerdy valedictorian’s obsession. The duo embarks on a series of misadventures after he proclaims his love for her in his graduation speech.

Heroes Spoilers
We just gave you a Heroes spoiler about a new actor coming aboard the show, Jamie Hector.
Now, courtesy of Kristin from E! Online, here’s information about a well-established actor/character on the series: Will we be seeing Niki again?
If you threatened to electrocute me with your lightning powers, I’d say…no. But I’d also tell you that doesn’t mean we’ve seen the last of Ali Larter. I’m hearing that the plan as of the last time the writers met up (prestrike) was for Niki to be dead—but for an alter ego to take over.

Not Jessica, not the whipped-cream chick from Varsity Blues, and that leaves…come on, you can guess it! It’s someone we’ve seen before. Of course, all that is subject to change due to the current holding pattern.
Volume three of Heroes will air at some point. We promise.
And when it does, actor Jamie Hector will appear on the series. Best known for his role on HBO’s The Wire, Hector recently discussed his upcoming part on Heroes:
My character’s name on Heroes is Benjamin Knox Washington. I can’t really disclose much about him, but I can tell you it’s a lot of fun. So many special effects — and it all winds up looking so real.
The set is different — it’s warmer outside, obviously — and in Baltimore, since most of us are not from Baltimore, we all hang out and go to dinner after shooting. We’re like a family.

Chuck Kim wrote the season one episode “.07%.”
Below, the Heroes scribe speaks up about the writers’ strike, the aforementioned episode and a number of other topics:
Q: So how’s the writer’s strike going?
It’s extremely boring. I mean, it’s really awful. This is the first show that I’ve ever worked on. One of the very cool things about it is that the crew is on set basically Monday through Friday, sometimes Saturday and Sunday, working on the show. They’re there on the set for twelve to fourteen hours a day, and they’re still just so enthusiastic about the show.
The camera people, the lighting people, the grips—everybody—they’re just so “into” the show. The fact that they can keep up that energy keeps us very excited too. We all feel really awful for those people, too, because not only are we not working, but they’re not working as well. Overall, it’s just a really depressing situation.
Q: It’s hard because I’m sure they all support the cause, yet it’s not their fight, though they have to suffer for it. It’s not anybody’s fault, it’s just a really unfortunate situation.
Indirectly, it’s their fight, too. While we’re fighting for residuals and whatnot, the crew members’ health coverage is basically paid for by the studio the same way our residuals are paid for by the studio. If we don’t get the same residuals from the internet and downloads, etc., then they wouldn’t get that percentage that they would normally earn from the internet for their health coverage either.
Q: It’s really affecting more than just the writers.
It is! We’re kind of the first group that is facing this. The actors are going to face this and the directors are going to face this. Basically, any other guild that has money tied into the studio that’s paid that way (whether it’s health coverage or anything like that), it will affect them as well.

No, we don’t mean Hayden Panettiere is lucky for dating co-star Milo Ventimiglia. Even though she is.
We mean this Heroes star is on the cover of Lucky magazine. Here are highlights from her interview with the publication:
On her current fashion sense: “Right now my style is very frenetic. It seriously changes as quickly as my mood.”
On her shoe fetish: “I’m kind of obsessive about really stunning heels. I get excited even taking the elevator up to the shoe floor at Bergdorf [Goodman].”
On transitioning from jeans-and-flip-flops teenager to glamorous Hollywood actress: “I’ve only recently been able to try out a bunch of different styles without feeling like I’m dressing beyond my age. On the show, I spend most of my time in a cheerleading uniform, so in real life I like to have a lot more fun with my clothes.”
