Glee Exclusive: Darren Criss and Harry Shum Jr. In, Chord Overstreet Out
It’s a case of good news/bad news for Glee fans.
First the good: Darren Criss (Blaine) and Harry Shum Jr. (Mike) have officially been upgraded to full-time series regulars, effective this fall with the start of Season 3.
And now for the not so good news…
Chord Overstreet‘s series regular option has not been picked up. However, a source close to the show says the actor — who joined the Fox hit last fall in the recurring role of McKinley transfer student Sam Evans — could return as an occasional guest star.
Late Friday, Overstreet issued a cryptic tweet saying, “It’s been a good year. Too bad it’s over. Time for summer and starting fresh.”
@iharryshum: My tweet-fans are the BEST! Much love to everyone of you! I leave you with Mike Chang s dance partner tonight..Moplissa twitpic.com/4n2b4v
“They’re singer-dancer-actor people,” says Jane Lynch of the Glee “kids” (pictured: Mark Salling and Harry Shum, Jr.). “There’s a maturity that isn’t in your typical 25-year-old.”

Guess who’s getting promoted?
Glee fans have been asking for a while now whether a certain fan-favorite guest star will be promoted to series regular, and I just got the good news that he will! So who is it?
Reliable sources confirm that Harry Shum Jr.— also known as Mike Chang, also known as the hot “Other Asian” dancer with abs of steel—will become a series regular next season.
What this means is that yes, we’ll be getting more ridonkulously good dance numbers from Harry (the fans go wild!) but also, sorry Artie, but it looks like your romantic rival might be all smooshy-wooshy with your girl Tina a while longer.
Like Heather Morris (Brittany) and Naya Rivera (Santana) before him, Harry started off in season one as a background player but has moved more into the forefront—scoring his first dancing duet last night with Matthew Morrison (Mr. Schue)
Harry Shum Jr channels his inner Swayze.

Harry performing at the Fulfillment Fund Stars Benefit Gala
Chord went the cowboy route for Halloween, and Matt went as Richard Simmons. Plus Harry as Edward Scissorhands (which we’ve already seen, but which is still amazing.)
John, Jenna, Kevin, Heather, Harry and Amber attend the Fulfillment Fund Stars Benefit Gala on November 1st.
Harry posted this and then took it down almost immediately. Odd.
@iharryshum: This was in my wardrobe closet. Apparently Mike Chang likes Anchor Man… http://plixi.com/p/45672831
