Deadline broke the news about the reboot, revealing that it will be called Heroes: Eclipsed.

The outlet reported that it would be set in the future and would introduce fans to a new generation of evos, or humans with special abilities. It appears that Heroes: Eclipsed will follow in the footsteps of Heroes Reborn, which brought on some of the original cast as guest stars.

While it does not sound like the original cast will be taking the lead, fans should expect to see “familiar villains” in the mix!
