TV Guide has released their Heroes cover story online. Here it is.
‘”SAVE THE CHEERLEADER, SAVE THE WORLD” may be cryptic words to live by, but this phrase is getting heavy play these days on the Hollywood soundstages where NBC’s new hit series Heroes shoots. On a bright October day, the motto adorns sweatshirts worn by crew members, while inside, on one stage, Adrian PasdarMilo Ventimiglia). plays out a scene in which his character, unscrupulous politician Nathan Petrelli, scoffs at the idealism the motto inspires in his younger brother, Peter (Milo Ventimiglia).
“Where does he get these delusions of grandeur?” snaps Nathan, who’d prefer that his brother’s attitude — and superpowers — didn’t complicate the upcoming congressional election. “He thinks if he saves the cheerleader, he’ll save the world.” That cheerleader is Claire Bennet (Hayden Panettiere), and what the world needs to be saved from is a
nuclear holocaust that begins in New York City. The saviors are a small group of genetic mutants who wield — some reluctantly and others with relish — a variety of superpowers that complicate their daily lives.’
It may be gone soon, but if it does go I will try my best to recover it and post it on here.
