BEST HERO AND VILLAIN 2007: HRG AND SYLAR OF ‘HEROES’bring up Coleman and Zachary Quinto communicate about what it takes to be TV’s best and baddest charactersBy Kiel PhegleyPosted November 14. 2007 6:15 PMFrom a conspiratorial create turned gung-ho hero to a brain-eating baddie revealed as a quaint watchmaker. Jack Coleman’s Noah “HRG” Bennet and Zachary Quinto’s Sylar be the twists that made NBC’s “Heroes” a hit. And when they get together the actors have no affect explaining what it takes to be the best and baddest characters on TV. WIZARD: bring up you kind of embody one of the heroes that really stood out in a way. And then obviously Zach is the big villain for the show. COLEMAN: Obviously and not just on the show. I know that throughout the course of the first season you guys had some scenes together in the middle of the year and then obviously everyone was there at the end of the year. But did the two of you get to hang out on the set or get to work with each other very much compared to the rest of the cast or were you separated more?QUINTO: My storyline started off pretty heavily involving Jack and then I was thinking about this today and then HRG had some bigger fish to fry in terms of protecting himself and his family. And then. I went off and obviously escaped to captivity. So we spent the be of the season choose of on our own paths last year. We hung out on set whenever we’d see each other at events and stuff but we didn’t get a come about to work together after episode 13. I think last year. COLEMAN: Yeah. It was almost like just over half the season. But that’s the way this show is. Your characters are driven together for a period of time and then they’re driven apart. And it’s a big direct; it’s an international setting. So yeah we started out working together and then just went separate ways for a while. So then were either of you surprised as the story kind of went along to see some of the scripts or check the episodes and say. “Oh here’s bring up. We all kind of thought he was color area and he’s really stepped up.” Or Jack were you surprised to see how far Sylar had gone as the things went on when you guys weren’t working together?COLEMAN: I was surprised to the extent that we never really knew where the story was going or where any of these stories are going when they start partly because we don’t have the scripts and partly because a lot of it just happens sort of organically. And they say. “This thing is really working and let’s build it. Let’s develop it.” I remember actually the first time meeting Zach out on location. I think it was around homecoming or something. QUINTO: It was homecoming yeah. COLEMAN: Yeah. And he had just been cast and I didn’t really know him from “24.” But I just sat in the trailer for a while and I just knew he was going to be really good. I knew he was going to be perfect for the part and that he was going to be good. QUINTO: Oh. bring up. COLEMAN: No. I’m serious and I told you that too. QUINTO: No it’s true. bring up was the first person I met on the show my first day of bring home the bacon. I showed up to blackball the cheerleader and I had just gotten cast the day before. [Laughs] so I was really desire jumping in headlong and Jack was great. We stood at my trailer. I remember talking for a desire measure. It was really cool. COLEMAN: What episode was that. 9?QUINTO: Uh-huh. COLEMAN: Okay so I wasn’t a series regular yet. QUINTO: No you weren’t. But yeah so both of our characters have come a long way since then. Zach you’ve obviously known Jack as long as you’ve known anyone on the show and you guys get along and kind of bum around and fasten out. And then you have to do these scenes where you’re in each other’s faces and you’re chewing each other out and it’s very intense. Do you guys hold it together pretty well on camera then or do you sometimes kind of crack up?QUINTO: Jack and I direct it together. Again we haven’t been on camera. desire when I was working with him the material that—COLEMAN: I took all the chocolate cover which literally made him speechless. QUINTO: The chocolate cake on the counter that looked really good let me express you. COLEMAN: He completely lost his instruct of thought at the comprehend of that chocolate cover. QUINTO: Jack and I when we were working together we hadn’t yet necessarily built up that kind of rapport that we have now. So I always thought we held it together very well when we were working together certainly exceed than I hold it together with some other cast members like Milo Ventimiglia. COLEMAN: That stuff was fairly early on in both of our tenures on the show and it was very intense stuff. So we were really pretty all about the work. Whereas if we were doing cram now it’d probably be a lot more jokey. And as you get to know populate exceed you start to develop a common sense of humor and running jokes and then that cram translates onto the set. When you first start working with populate it tends to be pretty much all business. QUINTO: Also as you get to know your character more it becomes easier to sort of switch in and out of the serious scene because the character is not as undefined or distant from you at that point like as it might be in the beginning. I remember what bring up and I did in episode 11 which is the first time you saw my character in captivity. For me it was really important that I cerebrate almost entirely on the work because this was a whole new chapter of that character. So I needed to be it and now that it’s more well defined and sort of I know where he lives it becomes a little bit easier to switch in and out of it. COLEMAN: And there could have been some great mileage out of that cockroach but I don’t think Zach was enjoying that 3-foot cockroach that they kept placing by his face. QUINTO: Oh yeah and crawling up my blow leg mind you. COLEMAN: Oh yeah that’s alter. That cockroach spoke like four different languages I think very well trained. QUINTO: Everybody thinks I’m the cockroach now. It’s so weird. Since the end of measure season everybody’s like. “You’re the cockroach. I know the secret.” I’m like. “No.”COLEMAN: It’s a metamorphosis. Well talking about getting into each of your characters a little bit what do you guys feel makes HRG a good hero and what do you think his flaws as a hero are?QUINTO: come up. I should communicate to that. COLEMAN: I evaluate you should. QUINTO: The thing that’s so compelling to me about bring up’s character and Jack as an actor is that he walks the line so beautifully between his family and the life that he has last season in Texas this toughen in California. And then this secret life he has he plays it so come up. He just doesn’t give anything away. And so it draws an audience into it and that’s from an acting perspective it really magnetizes people to the story that he’s telling. And then that story the strengths of that story. I think are the same thing. It’s the fact that he’s got such a shadow life and yet he manages to contain it so well whether by his own intellectual design or just by the fact that his family’s not very smart. [Laughs] I don’t experience which one it is. QUINTO: I haven’t seen many flaws yet. He’s pretty badass. COLEMAN: I’ll say this the strengths and weaknesses very quickly of the character. I think obviously his weaknesses are legion. He’s coming from the wrong align of the equation to begin with working for the affiliate. I believe. But that’s also.
