Broadway's Wesley Taylor, who previously starred on NBC's TV hit musical 'Smash,' may well be heading back to TV for the next season of HBO's LOOKING, starring Jonathan Groff ('Spring Awakening,' HBO's 'The Normal Heart') as Patrick, along with Frankie J. Alvarez ('Smash') as Agustín and Murray Bartlett ('August') as Dom.

Taylor, who has been seen on stage in The Addams Family and Rock of Ages, has been posting cryptic images from what appears to be the set of the HBO series to his Instagram account, indicating that he may have recently taken a part on the popular show.

Taylor co-starred in the hit TV show SMASH, as Bobby, a flamboyant ensemble member who is not afraid to say what is on his mind. His hit web series, It Could Be Worse, debuted season 2 on Hulu this summer. Taylor made his Broadway debut in the rock musical Rock of Ages, where he originated the role of the German city developer Franz. He won a Theatre World Award for this role, and was nominated for an Outer Critics Circle Award. His second major role on Broadway was as Lucas Beineke in the musical The Addams Family, a role he originated after previously playing the role in the 2009 Chicago production of the show. Taylor also participated in a reading for a play called A Dog's Tale (or The Thing About Getting) at the Kennedy Center. On March 7, 2011, Taylor played the title role alongside Lauren Molina in a reading for a stage adaptation of Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, penned by playwright Michael Raver.
