Access Atlanta talked to George Takei, who’ll be at Dragon*Con:

[He] nabbed his biggest role in years playing Hiro’s father on NBC’s hit show “Heroes.” He’ll be at Atlanta‘s Dragoncon festival this weekend to meet fans and gab about “Heroes,” the upcoming “Star Trek” film and his upcoming nuptials….

Q: I’ve already seen the first episode of the new season of “Heroes” and I see you’re still in it, even though your character is dead!

A: I’m there for about 10 seconds. That’s the way it is with “Heroes.” Nothing is ever as it seems on the surface. And you’ll manage to see a bit more of me throughout the season.
