10 Questions with HEROES Star Masi Oka
2008-09-30 00:56:00 1. On Critical Backlash Masi Oka: Every critic is different and people look for different things. So I don’t know if the critics are bashing for the sake of bashing it, but maybe it’s just like a continued - well continuing (stealing the hat) from Season 2. So I’m hoping that, you know, as the episodes progress that they could just go back to what made HEROES great with Season 1 and where Season 3 is headed towards, and then go back to seeing it as, you know, pure entertainment for the whole family. Season 3 is definitely a lot more fast paced. You know, it’s basically the writers’ answers to what - the feedback we received from the fans. They wanted more - you know, there was fast storytelling, you know, a lot more action and a lot more of the original characters. 2. On Hiro and Daphne I’m very excited. We’re already shooting Episode 12 and there’s a lot of great shocks and, you know, twists and turns. With Hiro and Daphne, you know, ...

Behind the Scenes With Heroes Creator Tim Kring and "Hiro," Masi Oka
2007-05-03 00:40:00 Behind the Scenes With Heroes Creator Tim Kring and "Hiro," Masi OkaSource: http://www.wired.com/entertainm-ent/hollywood/news/2007/04/magk-ringTim Kring doesn't know Magneto from Wolverine. You'd never know it from watching Heroes, his hit show about everyday people with extraordinary powers.Tim Kring has never been much into comic books. As a kid growing up in Santa Maria, California, he was more into running track and playing acoustic guitar. "The idea of the dialog bubbles always bothered me," he says. (That's a major tip-off - a true comics fan knows those things are called speech balloons.)As an adult, Kring found success as a writer and creator of mainstream TV dramas - Chicago Hope and Providence in the 1990s, Crossing Jordan in 2001. His only brush with geekdom was when, at the age of 24, he sold his first script to the so-lame-it's-cool show Knight Rider.Now, lo and behold, he's television's lord of the geeks. Kring is the creator of Heroes, the Monday night NBC drama ...

Masi Oka turns 21 on the big screen!!!
2007-01-02 14:01:01 Masi Oka, the breakout star of NBC’s rookie hit "Heroes," is putting on his poker face for the casino-set thriller "21." The film is inspired by the true story of a group of men who learned the art of card counting and won millions of dollars gambling. Oka is in talks to play a supporting role. The Columbia Pictures project is based on Ben Mezrich’s best-seller "Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six M.I.T. Students Who Took Vegas for Millions." Jim Sturgess will star in the long-gestating project, which picked up steam last year when director Robert Luketic dropped out of a big-screen adaptation of "Dallas" to take the helm of "21." The blackjack tale is scheduled to begin shooting in February in Boston and Las Vegas. Oka, who once appeared on the cover of Time magazine under the headline "Those Asian-American Whiz Kids," worked for years as a computer-animation artist at George Lucas’ Indu... |
