‘Glee’ Promotes Chord Overstreet to Regular, Casts Puck’s Half-Brother in Season 4

While some actors will be appearing less in “Glee” season 4 than in the previous seasons, Chord Overstreet will have more scenes in the upcoming season. It has been reported that the Sam Evans depicter is upped to a series regular when he returns for the forthcoming chapter.

Beside Evans and the remaining members such as Tina, Artie and Blaine, the New Directions will welcome a new addition. “Blue Lagoon: The Awakening” star Jacob Artist has been cast in the role of Jake, Puck’s younger half-brother who auditions for the glee club, but his bad-boy attitude could land him in trouble.

Also joining the cast is Dean Geyer, who recently played security guard Mark Reynolds on “Terra Nova“. The Aussie hunk is cast as Brody Weston who is described as a handsome upperclassman at NYADA. His arrival may create a possible love rivalry for Finn since Brody shows an interest in Rachel.

Prior to recruiting Artist and Geyer, “Glee” has nabbed Sarah Jessica Parker and Kate Hudson to appear in multi-episode arcs. Executive producer Ian Brennan recently revealed that the “Sex and the City” alumna would play a frazzled, eccentric and hilarious character who is “running Vogue.com,” while the “Bride Wars” actress would portray Cassandra July, Rachel’s dance teacher at NYADA.

“Glee” will return with the fourth season starting Thursday, September 13 at 9 P.M. on FOX. The first episode is titled “The New Rachel” and will see Lea Michele’s alter ego singing a Barbra Streisand song.

Beside trying on her new power as a vampire, the Mystic Falls beauty will engage in her “first hot vampire sex” early in the season, so executive producer Julie Plec spills.

Dishing on another raunchy scene in the upcoming season, Michael Trevino reveals there will be a “big, spontaneous, explosion of joy with some kissing” when Caroline first meets Taylor again, after she thought he died. “Shirts are flying off in our first episode back,” the actor goes on teasing.

On Damon’s new drinking companion after Alaric died in the season 3 finale, Ian Somerhalder shares, “I think Tyler is up to the challenge of picking up at the bar where Alaric left off. Enemies will become allies.”

“Vampire Diaries” season 4 will premiere Thursday, October 11 at 8 P.M. on The CW. It will see Elena adjusting to her new life as a vampire. “She’s going to be grieving her life… She’s going to be devastated,” Dobrev once said of her alter ego.

‘Modern Family’ Main Cast Sues Producer Following Contract Dispute

The salary dispute between “Modern Family” cast and 20th Century Fox Television has turned uglier. After rejecting the offer made by the producer, Sofia Vergara, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Eric Stonestreet, Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell have filed a lawsuit against the company.

According to the complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, the five actors claim Fox violates the “7-Year Rule” under California Labor Code section 2855 (a). The lawsuit says, “That provision dictates that contracts to render personal service may not be enforced beyond seven years from the commencement of service under it.”

Ed O’Neill, who was the only adult actor not taking part in the initial filing, has reportedly decided to join his co-stars in the lawsuit. The Jay Pritchett depicter is negotiating his contract separately and has been paid more than other cast members, but he is said to have joined the suit out of solidarity.

Vergara, Ferguson, Stonestreet, Bowen and Burrell, who allegedly made $65,000 an episode in the third season, were offered $150,000 per episode plus a $50,000 per episode bonus for season 4, $200,000 per episode for season 5, $225,000 for season 6, and up to $325,000 for an anticipated season 9, sources said. However, they reportedly want bigger paychecks, believing the show has been a money machine for ABC.

Due to the contract dispute, a table read which was scheduled for Tuesday at 11:30 A.M. was canceled at the last minute. An insider said O’Neill was the only adult actor who showed up for the script session.
