Posted: 6/17/11 at 1:50pmWHAT??? I would rather this close when Radcliffe leaves than have Colfer come anywhere near this show.

Not gonna happen. Colfer doesn't have the time, and the Daily mail in generally is a ****ty tabloid.
Next.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 1:53pmI did hear that he wants to leave GLEE after the third season...

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:00pmYes, but GLEE will be in the middle of shooting said third season at the time that Baz claims Colfer would be replacing Radcliffe. What are the chances that Ryan Murphy would agree to write out one of his most popular characters before his contract is up?

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:02pmKurt is set to graduate at the end of the third season so yes he should be leaving the show. Like other's have said the timing is all wrong

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:14pmOh please, NO! I am usually up for giving anyone the benefit of a doubt and I did love Daniel's interpretation of the show, but Chris Colfer seems all wrong for this part and I am leery of former GLEE members descending en masse on Broadway when their contracts are up.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:18pmWill they equip his body mike with autotune?

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:22pmAnd will they be raising all of Finch's songs by an octave and a half?

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:32pmI don't recall that Finch has to screw up his face and cry. Cause that's the only thing Colfer can do.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:47pmRadcliff is already a stretch. I enjoy Chris and I would like to see him do something besides Glee - Yes, even on Broadway - but this show is NOT right for him. It wasn't even right for Daniel. Wasn't there talk of Elijah Wood replacing him?

Posted: 6/17/11 at 2:50pmHow great would Brotherhood Of Man be with Chris though?

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:00pmIf the show has a life beyond Radcliffe, I'd love to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt take over the role.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:13pmNO! Finch should have a strong voice.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:21pmWhat I heard was that Darren Criss (who plays Blaine on Glee) was going to take over while Daniel is gone promoting Harry Potter for two weeks in July and then was going to take over full time when Daniel leaves. Like.. I heard it was a done deal..

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:39pmIf they change Rosemary into a part for a man, it may work.....what an obnoxious choice for replacement. Get someone with some appeal. The show would not survive without a star in the role.... I bet they ask one of the Jonas brothers. How about Lil' Wayne?

I love Chris Colfer, but his voice is WAY TOO HIGH for this show. I have no doubt that he talented and should be on Broadway somewhere, but not here.
Darren Criss sounds like a considerably better fit, but any GLEE stars may be problematic because they not only have filming, but they have their concert tour as well.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:45pmI personally think he would be better off going for Elphaba or Glinda in Wicked.

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:50pmHasn't he already been going for those roles?

Posted: 6/17/11 at 3:52pmso Elijah Wood isn't going to star in it now??
#22Happy April Fool's Day, it's a gift from Baby Jesus.
Posted: 6/17/11 at 4:37pm^ Yeah, I liked the Elijah Wood rumor better than this.

This is a lie. They cancelled four or five performances, and he's going to squeeze out all of his promotion in those few days.
