Overstreet to Play 'Kurt's' Boyfriend on GLEE?

As BroadwayWorld previously reported, Chord Overstreet has been cast as a new member of New Directions ('Sam') on GLEE and will make his debut in the upcoming season.

The character of 'Sam' is rumored to be a protege of Finn, played by Cory Monteith, who soon turns into a rival. EOnline! is now reporting that the character will also be a love interest for 'Kurt,' played by Chris Colfer.  GLEE's Jane Lynch ('Sue Sylvester') tells EOnline! of 'Kurt's' new boyfriend:"He becomes the new star quarterback and he's going to be Kurt's boyfriend...He's tall, boyish with straight blonde hair and big fat, pouty lips."

Seems like Overstreet is the unnamed suspect here.

Overstreet's credits include 'Private,' 'The Hole,' 'ICarly,' and 'No Ordinary Family.'

Winner of the People's Choice Award for Best New Comedy and Golden Globe winner for Best Television Series Comedy or Musical, GLEE, the new musical comedy series, follows an optimistic teacher who - against all odds and a malicious cheerleading coach - attempts to save McKinley High's Glee Club from obscurity while helping a group of aspiring underdogs realize their true star potential.

The show, which also garnered Golden Globe recognition, stars Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Jessalyn Gilsig, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Mark Salling and Jenna Ushkowitz.

GLEE is produced by Ryan Murphy Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan are co-creators of the series. Murphy, Falchuk and Dante di Loreto serve as executive producers, while Ian Brennan serves as co-executive producer.

GLEE will return to FOX for its second season on Tuesday, September 21, 2010.
