He look like a young noah you think?

I agree and I think I've pointed that out a couple of times since I first saw him. Is this the start of another "D.L. is the Haitian" scandal?

Hm...I guess he does. A bit.

Although, in all honesty, the first thing I said when I saw him was, "Look! Harry Potter!"

To me he's almost like a rip-off of Magneto from the X-men, being German and having 'magnetokinesis', compared to HRG there is a similarity with glasses, and some facial features, but I didn't think anything of it.

Magneto wasn't German...

IIRC Magneto was a German Jew. He and his family were shot and killed by the Nazis (well, he was shot, but survived). When they found out he survived, the Nazis sent him to Auschwitz in Poland. So, yeah, he was German.

As for the German in the series, I think the fact that he looks like HRG is just a coincidence and that he's more of a Magneto ripoff than a second HRG.

Although there are similarities between the German and Magneto, there are major differences as well.

QUOTE
Although Magneto’s primary power is control over magnetism, he can also project or manipulate any form of energy that is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, including visible light, radio waves, ultraviolet light, gamma rays, and x-rays. However, Magneto almost always uses only magnetism, since it’s more difficult for him to manipulate other forms of energy. Magneto has also exhibited powers of astral projection and telepathy, and has claimed to be able to control the minds of others, though his abilities along these lines appear to be minimal.

He does look like HRG. In fact, when Elle woke up and saw The German, I was like "I guess she sees Noah like that because she's not conciuous enough." But then I saw The German in that gas station scene and said "Oh.".

Well that's about all the questions I had. Everyone's very excited about the premiere and about seeing all the villains in action.

You know it's funny, I'll tell you one quick side note. You know all the billboards here in L.A., they have the logo, "Heroes Villains" and everybody has been calling me…my family, my aunt, my nephew, all my best friends… they're like, "I saw you on the side of a bus today," "I saw you on a billboard today on Wilshire." I'm like, "No kidding!" So I go out driving around trying to find myself and it's not me. It's Jack Coleman. I'm like, "No that's not me, It's Jack." Even on set, when we were shooting, people thought I was his stunt double or people thought I was him….and I went up to Jack at lunch one day and I was like, "You know man, everybody thinks I'm you." And he stops and he goes, [imitates Jack Coleman] "Yeah, we could actually be brothers." He's a super cool cat. But it's been funny, because I'll get texts from family and friends. "Oh I just saw you on a billboard." "Nope, not me." [laughs]
