I’ve got my own celebrity scoop here for a change! I really should have posted this on Friday evening or early Saturday morning, but we had our big family reunion this weekend and creating blog posts was simply impossible.
So what’s the scoop? Well, as you might know the cast of Heroes visit cities all over the world at the end of August. They went to Singapore, London, New York, Paris and their last stop was in Toronto on August 30th and 31st. You can view a short video of their Toronto visit on the NBC Heroes page.
I had wanted to go and see the four cast members who visited Toronto when they made an appearance downtown at Dundas Square, but I wasn’t able to make it on time as I had to meet up with my family and begin our reunion. As it turned out, our first family outing was to see a baseball game – the Toronto Blue Jays versus the Seattle Mariners. Well, much to my surprise and delight some of the cast of Heroes also attended the baseball game.
Young Noah Gray-Cabey was in Toronto, but I didn’t see him at the baseball game. I did however get to see and photograph from afar Executive producer Jeph Loeb, James Kyson Lee who plays Hiro’s friend Ando, Zachary Quinto the evil Sylar, and Dania Ramirez a new cast member who will play Maya Herrera a Dominican who is on the run from the police. She has superhuman abilities, although they have not yet been revealed.
The cast members were given Blue Jays shirts with their last names printed on the back of their jerseys.
The cast didn’t stay for the whole game. They only stayed until the third or fourth inning, but I can tell you that they were cheering for the Blue Jays. The photo above of them standing was taken while they were cheering a Blue Jays home run.
When it came time for them to leave they hopped over the gate and walked on the field. James Kyson Lee took the lead by several feet hurrying ahead. Was he trying to get away or did he just think everyone else was walking as quickly as he was? As a result of his speeding exit I don’t have many clear photos of him. Most of my shots focus on Zachary Quinto.
See Lee jogging ahead?
The last clear shot of Lee in the lead. He’s already in the crowded stands:
Quinto looks like he might be on a cell phone here, but I believe he’s just scratching his ear:
One last look at the evil Sylar and his producer:
Did you know that in addition to his reoccurring role as Sylar on Heroes, Quinto is busy preparing for his role as Spock in the new J.J. Abrams-helmed Star Trek movie which is slated to begin shooting in November. He does look like he’d make a perfect Spock doesn’t he?
Stay tuned for more great Scoop. The Toronto Film Festival begins this week and I hope to see some of the new movies and get in some star sightings – with photos of course.
[…] great game. The Blue Jays won of course – after making several home runs! Oh and some of the cast of Heroes attended the game too and I was able to get some photos of them. That was interesting. I love that […]
