After all the rumors that were swirling around about will she do it or not, Idina Menzel, the star from Broadway, will officially be on Glee’s set to film her role for the upcoming episodes this season.

Lea Michele, Glee star tweeted, I’m on the set with Idina Menzel. She is so lovely and I’m very happy to have her on the show.

Ryan Murphy, creator of Glee, also provided some details for the character of Menzel to Michael Ausiello, resident Gleek for Entertainment Weekly, who shot the originally rumor down of Menzel playing the biological mother of Rachel, Michele’s character.

Murphy told Entertainment Weekly that he wasn’t going to do that. Her part was written as kind of Faye Dunaway in Network. She will be playing Vocal Adrenaline’s female coach. That is who she will be playing.

Menzel will appear during the first episode after the show returns to the air on April 13 as well as the season finale when the kids are participating with New Directions in their regional showdown.

Kristin Chenoweth, Menzel’s co-star in Wicked, appeared in an earlier episode this season. She sang a cover of “Alone” the hit from Heart, along with Matthew Morrison.
