Kevin Smith To Direct Heroes: Origins Episode

This article over at scifi.com says:

Kevin Smith will direct an episode of Heroes: Origins, the short-run spinoff series of NBC's popular Heroes, it was announced in a panel at Comic-Con International in San Diego, Calif., on July 28. Smith joined the cast and producers of Heroes on stage during a portion of a panel dedicated to the show. "This is going to be fun, and I'm very flattered, and it's quite an honor," he said.

This should be SUPER cool. Being a big fan of both Kevin Smith and Heroes makes this a perfect combination for me. Smith being a huge comic book fan should make this a great fit for him. We will probably see a very dialogue heavy and minimal special effects episode knowing Smith, but who knows?

Kevin seems to be taking TV by storm. Between this and directing the pilot of Reaper, he is going to have a lot on the tube this fall. I can't wait to see Reaper and am psyched that it got picked up, but hope that it will continue to be as good as the pilot is supposed to be without Smith at the helm. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

As always, if you are a fan of Kevin Smith, you really should be reading My Boring-Ass Life, Kevin's blog. He used to do daily posting of everything that was going on in his life, but has trimmed it down to more of an event based blog than anything else these days. And if you don't know how to (or just don't feel like reading), you can listen to Kevin and uber-producer Scott Mosier on SMODcast, their weekly podcast.
