TVGuide.com caught up with Darren Criss on the eve of Glee's Sunday Comic-Con panel and asked him a few questions, including one about the rumor that he is going to fill in for Daniel Radcliffe in Broadway's How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying.

Here is what he had to say:

TVG: Word is you're going to fill in for Daniel Radcliffe on Broadway in How to Succeed in Business. Excited?

Darren Criss: I don't know! People keep asking me about it, and it's kind of cool that that's out there in the world, but I cannot confirm anything at all. I mean, yeah, that would be really cool. That's certainly a wonderful role and a great show, and it would certainly be exciting to be a part of it. ... But it's definitely not confirmed by any means. I'm actually more just focusing on trying to get my head screwed back on right now.
