^Cory shot a movie with Leighton Meester, Monte Carlo... kinda silly I guess but it´s a start

anyone knows anything about the 3D concert movie?

 

[barbiestolemyDVN]

^ Here's the trailer.

 

[kokobombon]

^thanks

do you guys think they might do a spin-off with the cast that´ll leave? maybe going to NY, something like Fame...

 

[Label Basher]

^ No I really don't. I think it will be more likely that the three will just come back for cameos.

I wanna know about Quinn/Diana fate.

Really the only one who they could keep would be Britney surely, she's dumb enough to be able to have to repeat a year! I'm interested to see what happens to all the cast when they leave. They all came into the show with such different levels of success, Lea already had a very established Broadway career (Tom Hooper is an idiot if he doesn't at least see her for Eponine for his film version of Les Mis), as did Matthew but the others hadn't really had anything break out, I'm really interested to see who really capitalises once they leave. Diana for example will do well I think.

BTW if you're a Jon Groff fan -or a True Blood or American Pie fan actually- he's going to be in MCC Theater in NY's The Submission with Rutina Wesley and Eddie Kaye Thomas from Sept 8-Oct 22

I know nothing about Glee - have never seen an episode - but one of my friend is a die hard and now I am head over heels over Darren Criss and his "teenage dream". I think I need to watch that show !

Idina Menzel Returning to 'Glee' for Major Arc!

Idina Menzel will be returning to Glee in a major arc next season, according to Deadline.

The 40-year-old actress previously appeared on five episodes of the hit series’ first season as Shelby Corcoran, the biological mother of Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) and the coach of Vocal Adrenaline. Her character also adopted Quinn’s baby at the end of the season.

Idina is currently in final negotiations for a return to the show that could span 10 to 12 episodes!

Shelby will return from “New York to Ohio to join William McKinley High School as a new teacher and complicating things for Rachel as well as former flame Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison).”

“I’m really excited that Idina is joining the family again,” Glee creator Ryan Murphy said. “We missed her last year and we’re happy that she is coming back.”

--------

Thoughts?

 

[littlepaperstars]

I'm for them including as many Broadway names as possible. It's nice to see them on a regular basis. It gives them an out for Lea though if she's coming back from NY to Ohio, probably means she'll leave and take Rachel back to NY with her.

i think even Ryan said there won't be spin-offs, just a new cast all around.
i think Diana and Cory have the least chance of succeeding after this from the main cast. actually, i don't see anyone except Chris and Lea going bigger after this, Lea's already established as many of you already stated and Chris is a smarty doing few different stuff at the moment. i like Cory a lot but he's no James Dean (and i can't see him "bringing something new to HW table either and from what i can see on IMDB he only has a role in Brothers and Sisters coming up and nothing more) and Diana's just one among many many other blondes in HW, one far less talented then most of those and so so bland, IMO.

Glee Boss Ryan Murphy: Stars Were Never Fired
Ryan Murphy Explains Glee Casting Confusion

Between the conflicting casting news and subsequent cast comments, there seems to be more Glee drama in the headlines than in the halls of William McKinley High School.

But the show's executive producer, Ryan Murphy, is setting the record straight: No one was fired, and no one is leaving – only that was not the original plan.

Murphy says Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Chris Colfer, – who Murphy initially said were slated to graduate and end their run on the Fox series after the upcoming season – were actually in talks to star in a spin-off series, which has since been put on the backburner.

"I think that some of those actor's representatives spun [news of their departures] in a certain way, to be quite honest," Murphy tells Deadline. "We weren't allowed to talk about a spin-off. It was too premature."

Although Murphy is no longer currently pursuing the spin-off idea, he says that last March he had discussed the new TV venture with Michele, Monteith and Colfer.

"To pick up and read the actors saying, 'We found out we were fired from Twitter' – all of us, the studio, the network, were like, 'Okay, that isn't exactly cool,' " Murphy says, apparently in response to Colfer's comments earlier this month about the casting news. "So then what happened is that we decided, 'Okay, let's not do it.' "

Murphy says that by April or May there is a plan to revisit the idea for the spin-off, which would focus on the Gleeks' post-graduation move to New York City. But for now, he says, he's focusing on their lives in Lima, Ohio.

"Let's just concentrate on making season 3 the best that we can do," he says. "They're graduating. What we wanted it to get people away from this idea that the actors were fired, which is ludicrous."

I don't understand, why if they knew what's going on ,they were saying all those things.

 

[YoninahAliza]

Honestly, it might be good for Glee to start out with a mostly new cast after the third season. Skins did this and it's worked out really well for them because it keeps things fresh and interesting. But this format has the potential to not work well for American audiences because I think people get super attached to characters and aren't willing to watch a show if they aren't on it. So it could either make or break the show.

 

[aaron95]

As much as I love Lea and Dianna Im ok with the idea of a new cast, exactly as you say guys, The SKINS way, I jsut finished watching SKINS and let me tell you the thing about changing the charachters really makes something in you lol, I dunno how to explain the feeling but you dont really miss the charachters cause new stories fill your mind.

I hope they DO get a new cast cause its a great idea

 

[Label Basher]

^ Yeah I agree with you two. As much as I enjoy Glee if they don't keep it fresh/change it up I don't see if lasting past Season 4.

 

[Zann]

^ lol i always thought that if they got rid of majority of the cast, they wouldn't last past season 4.

the show needs a spark. There are simply too many crazy story lines that they cram into each episode that it makes the show lack substance. It did have good story lines to work with but they got lost.

i wonder if cutting a couple of people for new people will give the show oomph

 

[yesitsdagny]

I would also prefer a completely new cast. The kids from The Glee Project would be an amazing addition. I could totally see Samuel, Damian, Lindsay, Hannah and Marissa in the show.

Darren Criss Officially Takes Over 'How To Succeed' Broadway Run From Daniel Radcliffe

After a week of rumored reports, it's official -- 'Glee' star Darren Criss will make his Broadway debut in early 2012.
Criss will replace Daniel Radcliffe as the lead in "How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying" for a limited three week engagement from January 3 through January 22, 2012, with Radcliffe's final performance being January 1. This is not the first time Criss has filled a role also held by Radcliffe -- in 2009 Criss performed as Harry Potter in a student musical at the University of Michigan that rocketed him to viral Internet fame.
"Daniel gives an extraordinary performance eight times a week and we knew finding someone to fill his shoes would be nearly impossible. When we learned of Darren's dream of performing on Broadway we knew we had found our Finch but presumed his "GLEE" schedule would eliminate any chance to work with him," said director/choreographer Rob Ashford, according to Broadway World. "We are ecstatic and grateful to Ryan Murphy and his "GLEE" team at 20th Century Fox TV for helping to make both Darren's and our dream come true."
Tickets for the run are already on sale.

its a good opportunity for him but if he wants to get serious with acting he shouldnt continue following daniel's footsteps

 

[Alvedansen]

Since by now half of the Cheerios are members of New Directions, Glee is enrolling a new crop of Mean Girls! Who’s who?
* Sugar is… well, she’s basically RHNJ’s Danielle Staub, only in high school. Affluent, self-confident and a godawful singer.
* Sheila, a modern-day Joan Jett, actually has her own pack of Blackhearts and the tats to go with ’em.
But that’s not all. As production on season 3 gets underway next week, I’m hearing that the show is also on the lookout for a new linebacker, a gigantosaur by the name of Bubba. (What did you expect, a Kevin?) Sixtysomething actresses will also be passing through to audition for the role of Nancy Bletheim, a geometry teacher who thinks the arts are for… well, anywhere but in school.
