The past few weeks have been a constant whirlwind of news about Glee‘s future: there will be a Season 4; characters are graduating yet also staying on the show; the format will be a completely awesome and novel concept. Now that the winds are dying down and the fate of graduating fan favorites like Lea Michele, Chris Colfer, Cory Monteith, and Naya Rivera have been confirmed, questions start to be raised. Questions like: what about the rest of the cast?

The truth is, nobody knows yet, not even the cast themselves. When asked at the Fox TCA All-Star party, Mark Salling confided that he has no idea what his future holds.

“It’s just nice to really be able to work with the people I do and have the job I do. I feel blessed. And if they want to have me back, I’d love to.”

Sounds pretty good… after all, who wouldn’t want more Puck? Meanwhile, could there be room for more cast additions? Rumors are floating around that Grant Gustin, currently playing meerkat-faced Sebastian, is being picked up as a series regular for next season. Although Fox cautions that “we are not finalizing season four regulars until May” and Grant himself tweeted caution that series regular status hasn’t been made official yet, it looks like we’ll be seeing a lot more of Kurt’s rival next year.

There you have it, Gleeks! What do you think? Can you wait until May to find out who’s staying and who’s leaving? Do you think Sebastian should be added to the ranks of full-time characters? Leave a comment below!

It’s been confirmed! As we reported several days ago, NeNe Leakes, star of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, is joining the Glee cast as Roz Washington, the coach of McKinley High’s synchronized swim team coach.

The news was confirmed by Lea Michele and Chris Colfer, who appeared on Bravo’s Watch What Happens: Live! to share the news officially.

NeNe is confirmed to be in at least two episodes, the Grease and Michael Jackson tributes, and is slated to become a new rival for Sue. As if Sue needs any more rivals!

Season 3 is barely underway and we already have a treasure trove of goodies to look forward to, straight from the mouth of Ryan Murphy as reported by TVGuide. We already know that Idina Menzel’s Shelby Corcoran is coming back for a multiple episode arc, and Lauren Zizes (Ashley Fink) is quitting New Directions. Worried about Lauren being written out of the show? Don’t worry; she has a “major story with Chris Colfer” later in the season, according to Murphy.

It’s already shaping up to be a big year for Mike Chang (Harry Shum Jr.). Not only was he just given parents earlier in the summer, Murphy confirms that the infamously bad singer will sing at least two songs by the time the fourth episode rolls around, and that’s not a typo– he’s singing, not dancing.

And what about those promises made earlier in the summer, that there would be no more special guests, no more tribute episodes, that the Glee Project winners would get some great roles? Well, so far he’s mostly sticking to his guns. Aside from new characters played by Vanessa Lengies and LaMarcus Tinker, there are no current plans to add any more guest stars, although Gwyneth Paltrow making a return to her Emmy-award winning performance as Holly Holiday is possible later in the year. The Glee Project winners will be staggered throughout the season, with Damian McGinty arriving in the fourth episode as a foreign exchange student staying with Brittany (Heather Morris). Naturally, she “thinks he’s a leprechaun with magical powers”. Samuel Larsen will be appearing mid-season as a relative of Mark Salling’s Puck. One or both of them might still be around for the one tribute episode they’re planning this year. The details are still fuzzy and secretive, but if it works out it will be a two-hour episode in the spring dedicated to the music of an act they’ve been trying to license for the past couple years.

What’s your favorite bit of news, Gleeks? Being able to add some more Harry Shum to your iPod? More drama for Will and Emma? Seeing Gwyneth Paltrow, Damian, and Samuel back on your TV screen? Excitement for the season is already amping up, and we’re only in the first week! Share your thoughts below!

As Season 3 draws closer, new interviews with the cast are popping up everywhere!  In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, Chris Colfer spoke about Kurt’s arc this season, Blaine and Kurt’s relationship, and the season 3 premiere.  Some highlights from the interview include:

So what will Kurt’s arc be this season?
One thing with Kurt that they’re tapping into — which I’ve never seen done on TV — they’re really having Kurt having go through the levels of acceptance. He learned to accept himself in the first and second season and now I think he’s really still struggling to still find acceptance from others, unfortunately.

Is Blaine going to McKinley?
Well… you shall see.

Can you tease his storyline a bit?
[Laughs] He is entering a new area of school, or attempting [to enter] into a new area of school and responsibility that we have not seen him enter yet.

Chris also mentioned that he already had to receive medical attention while working on a musical number, saying:

I had my fifth visit straight from set to hospital the other day. The fifth time where I had to leave set and go to the hospital.

With only two weeks left until the premiere, we can’t wait to see how Kurt’s storyline evolves!  If you had your way, what would you want to happen with Kurt this season?

Stars of Glee have partnered with Vogue to promote the third annual ‘Fashion’s Night Out’, a global fashion event that combines the fashion of top designers with the star power of celebrities with the excitement of reinventing yourself with unique takes on the latest trend. “For the third year in a row, celebrities, designers, and stars will perform and mingle with shoppers as they take part in FNO-exclusive events and snap up special designs.”

It’s been a very busy week for Chris Colfer! After being named one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential people, news also broke that Chris sold the screenplay for a TV show to the Disney Channel. The screenplay, based on the children’s book The Leftover Little Witch by Florence Laughlin, revolves around a young witch named Felina who is taken in by a normal family after falling from her malfunctioning broomstick on the night of Halloween.

“I got the book on a Friday night and I adapted the screenplay by Sunday night. I got so into it. I wrote like a 102 page screenplay in two days,” says Chris about the project, which was brought to his attention after his agent’s husband bought the rights to the book and knew of Chris’s desire to write. Although Chris isn’t sure what his official title will be once the show gets rolling, he’s certain that he’ll be involved as some kind of creative force.

This isn’t Chris’s first foray in writing either as he also wrote the screenplay for Struck By Lightning, a film that is scheduled to film later this summer and if Chris — who calls himself “a born storyteller” — has any say in it, it looks like we can expect to see a lot more from him soon.
