Heroes Hiro Meets His Hero

SciFi Wire has posted a short news bit about an upcoming Heroes episode in which Heroes hero Hiro (yes, I’m doing this to be annoying) collides with Star Trek when George Takei guests on the show.

Don’t click further if you don’t want the story spoiler….


In an upcoming episode, Hiro’s father comes to find him in the US. George Takei (aka Sulu of Star Trek) plays the role of Hiro’s disapproving father.

For those who don’t watch the show, Hiro is obsessed with Star Trek.

Cute little twist, no?

And another chance to hear George Takei’s marvelous voice. (Is it as wonderful in Japanese? Hmm…)
