It was reported yesterday that GLEE star Chord Overstreet is currently in talks to become a series regular on the show's upcoming season. The actor joined the cast in Season 2, but left after being passed up as a series regular for the next season. After an overwhelming fan response to his absence, the actor returned to the series once again in a recurring role. 

Series co-creator Ryan Murphy told Vulture, "We've become like a family. I said to them anybody who wants to stay on the show will stay on the show. I asked all of them, 'What do you want to do? What are you interested in doing?'"

In addition to the returning regulars, Season 4 will feature guest appearances by Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker. Hudson will play Rachel's (Lea Michele) dance instructor while Parker will portray a manager Chris Colfer's Kurt. 

GLEE will return to Fox in a new timeslot, Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET, on Thursday, September 13.
