The announcement was made earlier today from the set of Heroes. Heroes is going world wide. The cast and creators will head off for at least seven major cities in an effort to promote the first season of the series where it has yet to premiere.
Cities confirmed so far are: Toyko, Hong Kong, Singapore, Munich, Paris, London, and New York.
Nissan will sponsor the tour (big surprise) which is supposed to be an environment friendly event.
Quote:
in an effort to "reduce the carbon footprint," Kring said, although he wasn't quite sure how, since jets and cars eat are on the forefront of global polluting. Maybe they can bike around Europe? That'd be a nice special feature on next season's DVD. Greg Grunberg, who plays the mind-reading Matt Parkman, said he was visiting Paris with his wife recently, and the show hasn't even premiered on the air there. However, he had people coming up to him left and right who recognized him from seeing the show on their computers. Sacrebleu!
Heroes actors that will make the trek:
Greg Grunberg (Matt)
Santiago Cabrera (Isaac)
Jack Coleman (Horn-Rimmed Glasses/Noah)
Noah Gray-Cabey (Micah)
Ali Larter (Niki/Jessica)
James Kyson Lee (Ando)
Masi Oka (Hiro)
Hayden Panettiere (Claire)
Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder)
Zachary Quinto (Sylar)
Adrian Pasdar (Nathan)
Milo Ventimiglia (Peter)
Not all of the cast members will be going to each city.

After it was said and done, they wheeled out an enormous cake shaped like the globe, with cookies stuck in the seven cities they'll be visiting. Tim Kring chopped it up with Hiro's sword, and secured himself a good photo-op in the process in case he goes for global domination of the non-pastry type.
