It only took Milo Ventimiglia half a season to get good at not revealing anything about his show Heroes. He's pretty good at teasing us though. After the last cliffhanger, we're all dying to know what's going to happen when new episodes begin again in January.
Interview: Milo Ventimiglia on Heroes
"I’d have to say, if you were blow away by what you saw in the first half of the season, you’re really going to be blown away by the second half," he said. "When there’s that fairy dust sprinkled on things and that excitement ‘are they really going to do this? Oh, my God, they just did it.' It’s going to be kind of hold your breath television."
As the empath who absorbs other heroes' powers, Ventimiglia has been one of the few cast members to costar with most of his ensemble. There are only a few left with whom he's hoping to share scenes.
"Leonard Roberts, Ali Larter. I think I’ve worked with everybody else. That was the nice thing about my character. I got to bounce around. But I haven’t worked with Ali or Leonard or Noah yet."
Heroes was the hit of the new fall season, and all modesty aside, the stars knew what they had. "If I were to say I were surprised at how well the show is doing, I’d probably look like an idiot. From day one of reading the script, Heroes just blew me away. The twists, the turns, character development and the build, I really was blown away and then add everything else, the writers, the production team and all the directors that have come through, it really has just grown into this wonderful world. It does stretch across, an American influence or an American appreciation but I hear about people in the U.K., in Australia, Asia is really looking forward to the show having seen bits and pieces of it."
Heroes airs at 9PM on Monday nights on NBC. The show is currently on holiday break.
