'Heroes' star praises horn-rimmed specs

Heroes star Jack Coleman has revealed that putting on Noah Bennet's distinctive spectacles helps him get into character.

"My character was called Horn-Rimmed Glasses from the start," Coleman told Radio Times. "They're not the most attractive things, but Man in Ray-Bans didn't have the same menace. I put them on and I'm the character, but sometimes I still find pictures of me in them disconcerting."

Coleman also explained why he has grown attached to Noah Bennet, saying: "What I love about him is that he's always on a moral pendulum. As good as he gets, he always goes back to being dastardly."
