GLEE PROJECT Winner Samuel Larsen Begins Filming on GLEE
In an interview with TVGuide.com, GLEE star Cory Monteith confirmed that Samuel Larsen, winner of the first season of Oxygen Channel's THE GLEE PROJECT has begun filming scenes for his upcoming story arc on GLEE. Shared Monteith, "He's here today. I can confirm he's here, but we haven't been formally introduced yet."
Monteith also revealed that Larsen will first appear on the Fox series in the Valentine's Day episode. Describing the role Larsen will play on the show, Monteith hinted, that it is a "very interesting role" which "ties into a lot of pre-existing storylines". Added the actor, "It's a smart way to bring him into the show. I hear he's very talented."
Damian McGinty, Larsen's co-winner on Oxygen's talent competition, made his debut on the show in the 'Pot O' Gold' episode last November, appearing in the role of 'Rory'. McGinty's character has become so popular with fans that his original seven-episode arc has been extended.
Yesterday, the Oxygen Channel announced that it has renewed THE GLEE PROJECT for a second season.
