According to the Christian Science Monitor, Glee fans might not have to wait until the show returns in January 2015 to see star Lea Michele on a Ryan Murphy TV show. It is being rumored that Michele has recently joined the cast the fourth season of Murphy's American Horror Story series. The new season, entitled FREAK SHOW, follows a group of carnival freaks in Florida in the 1950's.

Michele's addition to the cast has not been confirmed by anyone on set, but those familiar with the relationship between Michele and Murphy know that they enjoy working together. As BWW reported, earlier this year, it was confirmed the Murphy had secured the rights to FUNNY GIRL, which he hoped to bring to Broadway with Michele starring.
