y his own admission, Colin Hanks, a cast member of the WB sci-fi drama “Roswell,” flies “under the radar.”

While others on the show such as Jason Behr and Katherine Heigel generate lots of media and fan attention, Hanks moves though his normal life without a peep. For some Hollywood types, missing out on the hype would be a hassle. Not for Hanks.

“I’m completely fine with that,” he said. “I’m just happy to be working. I’m just a 22-year-old actor in L.A. who works consistently. That’s what really comforts me, that I’m working and I have money to put food on the table.”

Hanks plays Alex Whitman on the Monday night show about a group of aliens who look like humans and live in Roswell, N.M.

“We know more about their history and their purpose,” Hanks said of the current season. “We’re seven episodes deep [into production]. We’ve been exploring all sorts of story lines about other aliens out to get us and trying to keep it a secret.

“We push the science fiction now, which is great because it opens up so many doors,” he added.
