VERONICA MARS SCREWS FBI SPIN-OFF & LOST TO BECOME PART TIME MEMBER ON HEROES:

Kristen Bell will be a headline cast member on NBC's Heroes, during a limited number of episodes. The non-violent sleuth "was being sought for several TV gigs, including a part on ABC's Lost."

She will appear in October, playing Elle. A "sexy, mysterious young lady who has ties to the supposed death of Peter (Milo Ventimiglia), the past of H.R.G. (Jack Coleman) and the future of Claire (Hayden Panettiere)." Early On, the audience will witness her engage in "a serious crime, although it's unclear whether she's" a hero or villain (remember Candide of last season.) Also, tight wraps are being kept on whether the former good girl will have a power or not.

K. Bell will lead the "Weinstein Co.'s upcoming Star Wars-themed movie Fanboys. (NBC is owned by NBC Universal, which also owns SCIFI.COM.)"
