I really want to make a cheesy La Vida Loca joke here but I won’t. Ricky Martin will be shakin’ his bon bon on Glee in season 3. Okay, I had to slip that joke in there. Now that Shelby is hooking up with Puck, Mckinley is probably going to be looking for some new teachers.
Spoilers on who he’ll be playing:
Via TVLine:
Glee is temporarily lifting its moratorium on stunt casting, and with good reason.
The Fox phenom is in negotiations with Ricky Martin to guest star early next year, sources confirm to TVLine exclusively.
The bon-bon shaker extraordinaire will play what a Glee insider is calling “the hottest Spanish teacher ever in the history of Ohio.”
And a musically inclined one at that.
I’m told Martin’s scalding instructor will headline two big musical numbers in the episode, which is slated to air in late January.
I am actually okay with this casting choice. Anything is better than when Gwyneth Paltrow was on. Wasn’t Will the Spanish teacher? Since Vocal Adrenaline’s hot coach isn’t on the show anymore, I’m hoping Ricky will be rocking the leather pants.
A new cutie is making his way to Rosewood. Australian actor Lachlan Buchanan will be joining Pretty Little Liars for at least 2 episodes. Wow. I love this guy’s name. I wonder if he’ll have his accent on the show. The second half of Pretty Little Liars begins on January 2nd on ABC Family.
This is a great casting choice for Glee! While he’s not musical (that we know of) John Schneider is handsome and awesome which makes him the perfect choice to be Sam’s dad on Glee. Most of you may remember him from his role as Clark’s dad in Smallville.
TvLine:
Glee has tapped Smallville patriarch John Schneider to play the father of Chord Overstreet’s trouty mouthed crooner, TVLine has learned exclusively.
The gig reunites Schneider with Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy for the first time since they worked together on FX’s Nip/Tuck (where the Dukes of Hazard vet played porn impresario Ram Peters).
Schneider — who is booked for one episode at this point — make his Glee debut in this season’s eighth episode
TVLine is reporting that Lucy Griffiths will be joining True Blood as a series regular. She will be playing Eric’s vampire sister Nora.
The 25-year-old stunner — best known for her role as the ill-fated Marian in the BBC drama Robin Hood — is joining True Blood‘s Season 5 cast as a series regular.
Griffiths will play Nora, Eric’s (Alexander Skarsgard) centuries-old vampire “sister” (they were both progenies of Godric) who is working as a double agent within the Vampire Authority. Described as intelligent, intimidating, cool under pressure and a very good liar, Nora loves Eric deeply, but has dedicated her life to a higher purpose.
I can’t wait for True Blood to come back.
Eonline is reporting that Billie Joe Armstrong will be guest starring on Nurse Jackie’s fourth season. He won’t be playing himself but the tweet announcing it calls him a new cast member. Will he be recurring? That’d be awesome and I’d have to start watching.
Info on who he will be playing:
“[JOHN] (Male, 45) He is a badass, has a tattoo that says No Regrets and is a drug user who meets Jackie one night. He is chasing after that ultimate high. Has kids and a wife who don’t talk to him anymore.”
No futher details yet, but it appears Billie is partnering up with Edie Falco for at least one scene in the fourth-season premiere. Executive producer Richie Jackson tweeted out an on-set photo of the two, saying, “Edie and our new cast member @BJAOfficial! Wait til you see the season premiere!”
