NBC’s special event series Heroes Reborn has gained yet another returning cast member from the original series, this time in the form of Greg Grunberg, who played mind-reading detective Matt Parkman.
According to EW, Grunberg will not be a regular on the 13-episode miniseries, but will instead show up “in a guest star arc.”
Grunberg joins other returning Heroes stars Masi Oka as Hiro Nakamura, Jack Coleman as Noah “HRG” Bennet, and Jimmy Jean-Louis as The Haitian. They’re joined by a new cast that includes Zachary Levi, Judith Shekoni, Robbie Kay, Henry Zebrowski, Kiki Sukezane, Ryan Guzman, Danika Tarosh, Toru Uchikado, Eve Harlow and Gatlin Green.
From original creator Tim Kring, the supernatural phenomenon begins again with a fresh crop of inspiring heroes who take on the ultimate struggle between those with extraordinary abilities and those with nefarious motives to hunt and harness their powers. Epic adventures await these newly empowered allies as they cross paths with some of the original characters (such as the beloved “HRG” and fan-favorite time-traveler Hiro Nakamura), unlocking the mysterious fate of the universe and their place within it.
Heroes Reborn will air on Thursday nights on NBC this fall.
