TVLine's Michael Ausiello chatted with GLEE's Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Darren Criss, Naya Rivera, Kevin McHale and Jenna Ushkowitz at this year's Comic-Con in San Diego. The cast spoke about the Season 3 finale and dished about what to expect in the upcoming Season 4. Check out the interview below!

GLEE is a musical comedy about a group of eager and ambitious students who strive to outshine their singing competition to win Nationals while navigating the cruel halls of McKinley High. Since its debut, GLEE has become a bona fide cultural phenomenon, received prestigious honors including the Golden Globe and Peabody Award and singlehandedly made glee clubs cool again.

The glee club's fearless leader is WILL SCHUESTER (Matthew Morrison), a talented young teacher whose main objectives are to take the club to Nationals and revive his lackluster love life. New Directions' aspiring stars include RACHEL (Lea Michele), a pitch-perfect singer with an unfaltering determination to be the next Barbra Streisand; FINN (Cory Monteith), the cool quarterback who struggles with popularity and his plans after graduation; KURT (Chris Colfer), the out-and-proud cherub-faced soprano; MERCEDES (Amber Riley), a powerhouse vocalist with an attitude to match; ARTIE (Kevin McHale), a performer with tons of street cred who isn't held back by his wheelchair; and TINA (Jenna Ushkowitz), a strong and opinionated goth chick; and the fly dancer MIKE (Harry Shum).

There's also the arrogant and cocky crooner-with-a-soft-side PUCK (Mark Salling); ice-cold queen-bee and prom queen-turned-punk QUINN (Dianna Agron); and the dynamic dimwitted cheerleading duo of BRITTANY (Heather Morris) and SANTANA (Naya Rivera). Don't' forget Kurt's main squeeze, Warbler heartthrob BLAINE (Darren Criss). Mr. Schuester's heart is in the right place and he is determined to help the kids take Nationals, but at every turn he must battle with his nemesis, SUE SYLVESTER (Jane Lynch), the conniving cheerleading coach who is on a mission to destroy arts programs everywhere. Mr. Schuester's only ally at McKinley is the OCD-afflicted guidance counselor and love interest EMMA PILLSBURY (Jayma Mays).

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, Brennan and Dante di Loreto serve as executive producers.
