A Major Death is Coming To "Heroes"


The deaths keep on coming. A major death is about to hit Heroes Season 4. It will be a male character who has been on the show since Season 1, and that his death will definitely “leave a mark”, which means the death won’t be that of a minor character.

"However, I will tell you that this leading character is a male, and he is not necessarily pictured above. (He might be, he might not be.) And he is one of the original cast."

So who is missing from the pic above? Peter, Nathan, and Sylar. Who is present? Matt, Mohinder, Ando, and Hiro. So where does that leave us? Some thoughts:

1) Hiro is already supposedly dying, so it doesn’t make sense that his “death” would be a “water cooler moment” as Kristin puts it. Since we’ve been hearing about it, it wouldn’t be much of a surprise.

2) Mohinder? We haven’t seen him at all season. Will he show up only to be killed off? Again, I’m not sure if his death would really “leave a mark” on the show, as he’s been completely absent from this season.

3) Sylar? If Sylar really were to die, it would have the most impact on the show. To be honest with you, with all the movie offers he’s getting after “Star Trek”, I’m stunned Zachary Quinto is still a regular on Heroes. Maybe that’s about to change…

So who do you think will die, and will they actually stay dead? This is Heroes, after all, where dying is sometimes just a minor inconvenience.

I personally do not think it will be either Sylar or Ando because both of them were not listed as series regulars in Season 1, they were regulars as of Season 2. That leaves Mohinder, Hiro, Peter, Nathan, Matt and Noah. I don't think it will be Hiro because we already know he is dying, Nathan was killed off last season, and Mohinder has been absent all season so far. I don't think it will be Peter because he has a huge fanbase with the show. That leaves Noah (Claire's dad) and Matt, I think either of them could be killed off. Noah because he going to get involved with capturing the circus. Matt could be killed off too. I will not miss Noah or Matt, so I wouldn't mind if either were killed off. There is only so much story line a character can cover.
