“Veronica Mars” alumna Kristen Bell will appear in several episodes of “Heroes” playing Elle, a woman will ties to Noah Bennet who somehow had something to do with Peter Petrelli’s explosion and will become involved in Claire’s storyline.

Elle is introduced committing a crime, but she may not necessarily be evil.

Bell was also reportedly offered the role of a scientist named Charlotte on “Lost,” but apparently turned that one down.
