Heigl Awaits Roswell
Word
Katherine Heigl, who plays Isabel in The WB's teen alien series Roswell, told
Sci-Fi Wire that she's hoping the network picks the series up for a third year, though
there's been no word yet. "Not yet," Heigl said while promoting her upcoming
film Valentine. "We're going through the same thing we went through last year. I'm
fairly confident that it will be picked up. I hope the fans are, too. I hope the network
is, too."
Heigl said that the show is shooting the 16th episode of this season's 21. "I think
that you're going to see some major changes in Isabel's life and in who she is,"
Heigl added. "It's going well. It's a lot of work. I don't even remember what it's
like anymore to have a normal life and normal hours a day. But it's going well. I think
the show is finding its groove, which I'm glad about."
Heigl added that she values the support of fans, who came together last year for a party
to benefit charity. "Seriously, I was a Beatle that night," she said. "I
was huge that night. I was famous that night. That was fun. It was really exciting that
they did that. ... We had people coming from the Midwest, from the East Coast. We had
people coming from Japan. We had them from all over. ... It was [surreal]. Omigod. We got
up on stage, and the applause and the standing ovation and the roar of the crowd, I was
like, 'I could get used to this. This is good. Yeah! This is why I'm here!'" |
