Glee showrunner Ryan Murphy
wants Catherine Zeta-Jones to play Darren Criss' mother on the Fox
musical-comedy.
Criss plays out-and-proud student
Blaine Anderson on Glee,
which returns next month.
When asked by a fan on Twitter, “Are
we ever going to meet Blaine's dad? Will he be unaccepting, like it
was hinted at before?” Murphy replied: “Not sure, but know who I
want as BLAINE's mom? Catherine Zeta-Jones!”
Season three of
Glee will include guest star Sarah Jessica Parker (Sex in
the City) playing the editor of fashion glossy Vogue's
website.
Co-creator and
executive producer Ian Brennan described Parker's character as
“frazzled, eccentric and hilarious.”
“It's gonna be
good,” Brennan said.
