'Heroes' stages 'Pushing Daisies' reunion!

[Brian Damage]

It's not exactly a Pushing Daisies resurrection, but I'll gladly take it (and so should you): Swoosie Kurtz is reuniting with her former Daisies boss, Bryan Fuller, on Heroes!

Kurtz's spokesperson confirms to me exclusively that the actress has inked a deal to guest star in an April episode of Heroes written by, yep, Fuller himself!

"Bryan wrote the part specifically for her," says Kurtz' spokesperson of her character, Millie, an old society friend of Angela Petrelli's. "It's a really fun role."

As of now, Kurtz is signed for one episode, but there's definite recurring potential -- particularly if NBC renews Heroes for a fourth season (as many expect it will).

Heroes' Fuller-infused fourth volume, "Fugitives," kicks off on Feb. 2.
