First thought was Annie, but also maybe Cinderella (not sure on the Stepmothers role in this production)> I guess it would be a villain role

Annie was first thought as well. Cinderella is possible, also she may but a bit young but Madame Morrible?

^^ I just about the post the same thing about Madame Morrible.

Or how about Madame Giry?

Good. Would love to see her in something different because I never liked her character "Sue" on "Glee". The role is just so ridiculous and found it annoying even in the beginning.

Really? I always loved her as Sue.

The GingerBreadMan - I think she is good actress, just hate the character. I can see how it might have been funny for most people the first year but think it got old real quick.

Yes, I can see why you don't like it. Most of the time those supporting characters can get old after a season or so.

i know they don't usually stunt cast, but could she be headed into Mamma Mia....?

Annie would totally make sense considering Katie Finneran is committed to the new Michael J. Fox sitcom, which shoots through the summer.

Are they really going to put her in Annie with whats her name still there after the TONYS?

I immediately thought of CHICAGO, Chandra Wilson went in there one summer during her GREY'S hiatus. But God how I hope it's ANNIE! She'd be wonderful.

I'd be shocked if it weren't Mama Morton.

Mama Morton

With Katie leaving ANNIE very soon, they're trying to stunt cast the hell out of it to try and keep the show open.

Where's Finneran going?

[Owen22]

Posted: 2/12/13 at 1:20pm

Well, GLEE films in the summer too...so either she's leaving the show or the rumors of Season Five picking up stakes and moving production to New York might be true...

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 2/12/13 at 1:22pm

Katie will be starring in a new sitcom with Michael J Fox.

[ucjrdude902]

Posted: 2/12/13 at 2:46pm

I thought Glee pretty much said they're moving to New York?

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 2/12/13 at 3:19pm

So all the kids will move to NYC?

[ucjrdude902]

Posted: 2/12/13 at 3:20pm

I assume?
