Yes, according to actress Eriko Tamura, who plays the Japanese character Yaeko, Hiro’s love interest from Feudal Japan, and who apparently hasn’t yet learned the TV game of “teasing”, which every Heroes actor has done when asked about Heroes Season 3. Tamura also tells Sci Fi Wire that her character won’t only return for Season 3, but she’ll be transported to the present day! Or at least, that was the plan before the Writer’s Strike. Tamura, who is also shooting the live-action “Dragonball” movie (read more details here), still expects to return for Season 3 and continue her character’s arc.
Tamura said that her character, [Yaeko], was supposed to be transported to the present in episodes that were scripted but not finished before the writers’ strike commenced last fall. “I am going to be in the present, yes,” Tamura said in an interview.
“I actually had a few episodes of the script then,” Tamura said, adding: “Suddenly, the strike happened, so we had to stop the shooting.”
Tamura added that she expects to return to the show for the upcoming third season, which begins production in May.
