We probably ought to have expected this, with all the "Heigl-mania" going around! The super-hot actress has been in several hit movies, on the covers of more magazines that we can count, and of course has her award-winning role as "Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens" in the top-rated hit Grey's Anatomy. But sci-fi fans know that she has been an "Izzie" before, as in the alien "Isabel Evans" of Fox's 1999 series Roswell.
This morning Fox Home Entertainment has announced that they are re-releasing all three seasons of Roswell, still in individual season sets, but with new packaging that includes a sticker emphasizing that the show is "Starring Emmy Winner Katherine Heigl". Each come in boxes with redesigned front art that shows more of the cast, including future Lost star Emilie de Ravin clearly visible on the new Roswell - Season 2 packaging as "Tess".
April 29th is the release date for all three of these new packages. Cost per season set is $39.98 SRP in the USA and CA$54.98 SRP in Canada. Detailed contents aren't available, but for now we presume the content is the same as the DVD releases from 2004 and 2005. Here are pictures of the new boxes:
