Hayden Panettiere is a Brunette Babe

Hello! Check out Hayden Panettiere as a Brunette on the set of Heroes, shooting scenes for season three. I've got to say she looks damn good with dark hair, maybe even better than she was as a blonde. Also, that Lara Croft style outfit doesn't hurt either. Hayden fired off some shots, and while I've never really been into the whole "girls with guns" fetish, but Hayden looks pretty sexy here.

Hayden also took some time out to canoodle with her extra-douchified boyfriend, Milo Ventimiglia, while wearing some hot Daisy Duke-type cut-off jean shorts. It looks pretty obvious that they're going for the whole "Dark Side" thing in season three, which is kinda lame and predictible. Still, if it means we get to see Hayden's dark side, I can be down with that.

Lots, and lots, and lots more pictures of Hayden and her tough and sexy new look after the jump.
