Kristen Bell Joins 'Heroes'

 

On next Monday night's episode of "Heroes," KRISTEN BELL, a cult favorite for her work on "Veronica Mars," joins the cast of "Heroes" in the role of Elle.

According to Executive Producer TIM KRING, Elle was raised within the company where HRG (JACK COLEMAN) used to work, so she has used her powers her entire life.

"I can't reveal her secret powers," Kristen tells reporters. "She has ties to HRG and Claire (HAYDEN PANETTIERE), and there's going to be a very interesting dynamic between her and Claire. I think there's going to be a deeper relationship there than people are expecting."

Elle will also have ties to Suresh (SENDHIL RAMAMURTHY), so her loyalties are conflicted between the company and the rest of the "Heroes."

"She doesn't have many boundaries, which I think is the really interesting part of playing this character, because the whole first season has been about these fairly good-natured people trying to embrace these confusing abilities and being very [conflicted] as to how they should be using them," Kristen continues. "Elle is not that way at all. She very much enjoys her power and enjoys the emotional power it gives her over other people."

Look for Kristen's premiere when "Heroes" airs Monday night at 9 p.m. on NBC.
