In fact, Michele—who starred as the overzealous Rachel Berryfor all six seasons of the musical dramedy—said she would be happy to step backup to the micif it’s the right fit.

“I loveGlee,” she told E! News last month. “I will always loveGlee. I love Ryan Murphy. It just holds such a special place in my heart for me. So, I will follow Ryan wherever he goes.”

AsJenna Ushkowitz—who played Tina Cohen-Chang in the series—told E! News in October 2022, “If Ryan was doing it and the right people were involved, I’d consider it.”

AlthoughKevin McHalehad stopped believin’ moreGleewas in the cards, even he wasn’t giving a firm no to another go as Artie Abrams.  

“I don’t think that would ever happen,” he admitted to E! in September 2022. “Well, you know, until Ryan Murphy says so.”

“We all grew up together,” the actor—who was just 21 during its 2009 premiere—reflected. “We grew up doing this really insane and unique thing. It wasn’t even just shooting a TV show together. It was a TV show that became weirdly successful all over the world for different groups of people who didn’t normally have something like this on network TV.”
