The current cast of Glee will be graduating which means every character will be replaced except for Matt Morrison and Jane Lynch. Show creator Ryan Murphy has deemed it so. In an interview with Ryan Seacrest, Murphy says the 2012 class will leave and never come back.
“That is true. I don’t think of it in terms of eliminating or replacing. Because I think the thing about this cast is people love them and they are incredibly talented. They’ve left sort of an indelible mark.
“The thing that I wanted to do and the cast wanted to do, we didn’t want to have a show where they were in high school for eight years. We really wanted it to be true to that experience. We thought it would be really cool if we were true to the timeline.”
We’ve got Matt Morrison and Jane Lynch who will stay and be the male and female lynchpins of the series. But I think the fun thing about the show is it’s a celebration of youth and talent and I think that just like with the original cast, I think finding those young unknown people and giving them an opportunity to break into the business and become stars is a really fun and exciting thing and is the spirit of the series.” [StarPulse]
I don’t watch this show so I don’t know if this is good or bad but I think we should auto-tune all of the songs. I hear auto-tune is all the rage these days. Kids love it. (Said in the voice of an exec who came in late to the meeting)
Bad idea…it turned out horribly for Skins (the UK version), Murphy should learn from their mistakes.
