Today, while talking to critics at the TCA Press Tour about his new Starz reality series, The Chair (scroll down linked page for trailer), Zachary Quinto spoke about the possibility of him reprising the role of Sylar on NBC's upcoming miniseries, Heroes Reborn

Zachary Quinto as Sylar on Heroes.

"I've been in touch with Tim [Kring, creator] and he told me they were doing this and we left the door open for me to be involved, the trouble is really my availability," Quinto said. "I don't know that it would really even be possible. And it's a challenge for me because that experience and role and opportunity really changed my life completely and sent me on a path that I might not have otherwise have been on, but at the same time I'm very interested in forward momentum, I'm very interested in expanding and defying people's expectations of me.""I don't know that going back to such a definitely iconic character would necessarily do that," Quinto continued. "So it's a larger question that I haven't had to answer because no one's actually given me an offer. We'll see. I'm glad they're doing it and I know that whether or not I'm involved that the fans will enjoy it."Heroes Reborn, though featuring an all-new cast of heroes, has indeed left the door open for returning members of the original series. Jack Coleman, who played Noah Bennet, is set to reprise his original role. When asked about whether or not he'd be a part of the upcoming American Horror Story: Freak Show (as he was a part of Season 1 and Asylum), Quinto said that his schedule prevented him from being involved.Additional reporting by Roth Cornet from the TCA Press Tour.
