Heroes: Origins
In a May 2007 press release, NBC announced that in addition to "Volume Two," there would be a spin-off, Heroes: Origins,[9] consisting of six stand-alone episodes (for a total of 30 episodes set in the Heroes universe in the 2007-2008 TV season). Each episode of Heroes: Origins will introduce a new character; viewers will be able to select which hero will join the cast in the third season of Heroes. Heroes: Origins is intended to remove the need for the long mid-season hiatus after which the ratings for Heroes faltered in its first season.[10] NBC chief Kevin Reilly has said that Heroes: Origins will not be "peppered" throughout the run of the main Heroes season, as this would be confusing; it is currently scheduled to run in the spring, after the 24 episodes of Volume Two of Heroes conclude.[11]
