Save Chuck, Save the World? Actor Zachary Levi has joined the cast of NBC’s “Heroes” reboot — the “Heroes Reborn” miniseries.
Back in February 2014, NBC announced a 13-episode standalone story arc with a brand-new cast, aside from Jack Coleman, who’s slated to reprise his role as Noah Bennett. Original “Heroes” creator Tim Kring will also be returning as the executive producer of “Heroes Reborn.”
Levi joining the cast is the first of many announcements NBC has planned for the upcoming miniseries. NBC will also launch a digital series prior to the 2015 premiere — which is yet to be officially announced — that will introduce the characters and new story lines.
Levi told Entertainment Weekly, “One of my first, and fondest, memories of joining the NBC family in 2007 was having the pleasure of getting to know Tim Kring, and the cast of ‘Heroes.'”
