The 34-year-old landed a main role on NBC's upcoming series Heroes Reborn. The 13-episode show is a reboot to NBC's Heroes, which aired from 2006 to 2010.
"There are a few franchises I've always wanted to be a part of, and Heroes is one of them," the actor told TVLine.com. "Chuck gave me the opportunity to wield some fun powers, but an entire world with superpowers is a world I've always wanted to explore.

Levi joins Jack Coleman, who will continue his Heroes role as Noah Bennett. Other old cast members may also participate.
"Jack's the way in, but I think - and I'm not trying to be coy because we just don't know - you will see several of the old cast popping in to episodes," NBC president Robert Greenblatt said.
