Kristen Bell aka Veronica Mars is joining Heroes for several episodes starting in October. There were rumors that she was being adding to Lost, but it was Heroes that was the ultimate victor according to Variety.
Bell will make her first “Heroes” appearance in October. She’ll play Elle, a character described as a sexy, mysterious young lady who has ties to the supposed death of Peter, H.R.G.’s past and the future of Claire. Elle will kick off her arc by committing a serious crime, though it’s unclear whether she’s good or bad.
“This was not easy to pull off,” said “Heroes” creator-exec producer Tim Kring. “But since we’re an ensemble show, with many arcs playing out through the year, we found a way to jump into a small window in (Bell’s) schedule.”
That really is a coup for Heroes, I can't wait to see what she does on the show.

I love Kevin Smith, but I have to say I feel like Heroes has jumped the shark by getting guest directors.
I wonder if Silent Bob will have Ali Larter reprise his role as role Chrissy?
