'Heroes Reborn' adds 'Dexter' alum as series regular

Rya Kihlstedt has joined the cast of Heroes Reborn as a series regular, EW has learned exclusively.

Details on the Dexter alum’s role are being kept under wraps, so it’s unclear whether she’s playing hero or villain. But you may also recognize Kihlstedt from Masters of Sex and Nashville.

Kihlstedt joins previously cast Heroes newcomers Zachary Levi, Ryan Guzman, Robbie Kay, Kiki Sukezane, Judith Shekoni, Danika Yarosh, Henry Zebrowski and Gatlin Green. Original cast members Jack Coleman, Masi Oka and Jimmy Jean-Louis will also reprise their roles.

The 13-episode event series, which will feature a brand-new story and set of characters, is expected to debut later this year.
