Actress Brea Grant will be joining the cast of Heroes this fall when the new season of the super hero drama begins.

Brea Grant’s casting is bigger news.  She will play a character named Joy on Heroes.  However, Joy will be better known as The Speedster.  I’m willing to bet you can guess what her powers are going to be.  She’s going to be fast, really fast.  Think The Flash.

It’s unclear the exact nature of her character, where she’ll fit into the mythology or how significant a character she will be, but according to TV Guide, The Speedster is “quick on her feet — and adept at getting herself into and out of trouble.”
