Q: What seems to make the character unique is that with all these reluctant heroes, Masi, you play the world's one not reluctant hero. What were your thoughts when you first read that concept.

Oka: I thought it was phenomenal... Tim Kring created an amazing, beautiful world with such rich characters. Hiro embodied the sense of the 'every man' in many ways -- and how we all dreamed as a kid of wanting to be a superhero. And he's someone who kept his dream. He believed in it, believed in it, believed in it - and finally his dreams came true. To be able to live that -- live vicariously of his dreams -- of my dreams-- of becoming a superhero through his dreams, it's just fantastic. And I'm just very fortunate to have been part -- and having Tim entrust me with the character.
