“Glee” Faves Aren’t Leaving Show After All

Okay, so it’s official: Nobody making Glee has any idea what they’re doing. Contrary to the persistent rumors circulating the Interwebs, Glee stars Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, and Chris Colfer will not be leaving the Emmy-winning show after they graduate next season.

Well, color us confused.

Just weeks after Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy confirmed (repeatedly) that Lea, Cory, and Chris — otherwise known as Rachel, Finn, and Kurt — would be leaving the show at the end of its third season, executive producer Brad Falchuk has revealed that that’s actually not the case at all.

“Here’s the exact thing: They’re seniors. They’re graduating. But that doesn’t mean they’re leaving the show,” Brad told fans at Comic-Con in San Diego on Sunday. “It was never our intention or plan to let these people go … They are not done with the show after this season.”

Lea? Check. Chris? Phew. Cory? And breathe. But what about Chord?

“[Chord] decided he would have opportunities elsewhere that he would like to pursue,” Brad revealed. “We can’t force him to work.”

Gleeks, rejoice. It looks like your faves will be hanging out at McKinley High a little longer. There’s been discussion about a spinoff show following Finn, Rachel and Kurt in New York, but it doesn’t look like that’s happening. So, as of right now, they’re staying put.
