Hostel director Eli Roth will write and direct an episode of the NBC spinoff Heroes: Origins.
The series will act as a prequel to the primetime hit, which premiered for its second season last night. Origins will delve into the world of extraordinary characters not previously seen. Viewers will eventually choose their favourite Origins character, who will then be added the main cast of the original show next season.
NBC has already ordered 6 episodes of the spinoff, which will premiere midseason while Heroes is on hiatus.
Michael Dougherty (Superman Returns) and Kevin Smith (Clerks) will also write and direct for the new series.
