GLEE Looks to Fill Two New Conservative Roles

GLEE already has a cast that consists of more than a dozen popular characters, but according to a casting breakdown made available today there's room for at least two more.

Sister Mary Constance and Tammy Jean are the names on the breakdown, and the characters will be a departure from the cast of high-school Glee club: Tammy Jean is loosely based on politician Sarah Palin, and Sister Mary Constance is an exotic-dancer turned nun.

Movieline reports that the roles for the popular musical show on FOX need to be filled immediately, with the episode's filming beginning on Tuesday. 

"We've taken a couple jabs at the right wing this year," Ryan Murphy, the show's creator, told TV Guide last year. "So what I want to do with this character is have someone who Christian kids and parents can recognize and say, ‘Oh, look - I'm represented there, too!' If we're trying to form a world of inclusiveness, we've got to include that point of view as well."

The characters will make their appearances in the later episodes of season two. Read the full Movieline article here, and for all the latest Glee news click here!
