“One of the major reasons why, especially young people, have come out and done so much to play a part in this election — and who are really getting out there and voting this time around — is because of the celebrity endorsements, because of how popular this election has become, and how much in the news, and how much it’s taken over, you know, our society,” the Heroes star said.

It was very surreal to look at how far we had come.”

JJ: Hi, Wilmer! Thanks for taking the time to speak with me. Are you familiar with blogs at all? Do you keep up with celebrity gossip?

WV: Not so much, actually. To be honest, I’m kind of out of the loop and I prefer to be that way. I read sports blogs a little bit but for the most part, I’m not an online guy. I’m more of a newspaper kind of dude.

JJ: Your Disney show Handy Manny was renewed for its third season. Can you tell us a little about the series?

WV: Handy Manny is a show about this young man who owns a repair shop. He does all kinds of repairs around town and he has a team of talking tools. Each tool represents a different character trait, different personality. Really, really cool concept for a show about being proactive by working as a team, sharing with others, and understanding people’s needs. And most importantly, to share. Also, the show has a little bit of a Spanish, bilingual side to the show. Not very preachy but it does give you one or two words; a phrase here or a phrase there. So, subliminally, you can learn a different language.

But there’s still all of the things you love in there: There’s fantastic action, very beautiful girls, lots of stunts, some very very good stuff with Judi Dench.”
