UPDATE: In a feature Q&A with TVGuide.com, Heroes newcomer Nick D'Agosto reveals what he knows thus far about his exciting new role.

Another of the new characters Heroes is introducing in its second season has been cast. Nick D'Agosto, whose TV credits include bits on Supernatural, Without a Trace and House, but who most recently popped up as Jan's secretary administrative assistant, Hunter, in The Office's season finale, has landed the recurring role of West, a new boyfriend of Claire's and, says the Hollywood Reporter, the wielder of "a very cool superpower." What, the ability to not cheat on his prom date at the after-party? Because that'd be something.
