UK actor John Barrowman will have discussions with Glee producers in LA soon.
The Torchwood star told The Mirror, “I absolutely love the show. What would I play in it? I’m not sure what kind of character I’d like to play, maybe I could be a teacher, you know, another teacher who comes in and helps out.
“That’s me just kind of brainstorming but the fact that they want to have a meeting with me is really quite nice in itself, it’s so exciting!”
Barrowman, who has done a number of music theatre roles, is set to begin work on his 6 episode arc in Desperate Housewives.
As for the future of Torchwood, he says there had still been no green light yet, even though Russell T Davies has said he’s already written another 15 episodes.
“If I’m asked to go back and do Torchwood, I will at the drop of a hat go and do it. It’s just a question of when,” says Barrowman.

Come on BBC ! Dont let the seppo’s pinch John! Those soaps are rubbish!We’d be happy to have him here anytime!
It’s bad enough he shows up on bloody everything in the UK without him ruining US shows too! Can’t you guys find him a role on Neighbours or something – that would keep him busy, and i never watch it so keep my screen Barrowman free!
@ Shelly… Brilliant!!!! And Will always wanted to be him!
We should be writing the episode!
Jack!
I think he should be Will’s high school nemisis – the guys that got all the parts in Glee that Will didn’t!
He would be a scream in Glee … can just imagine how the gay character would follow him around like a puppy!
Looking forward to him raising hell in Desperate Housewives!
As for Torchwood … I have no doubt that it will be back for a fourth year, but it may well be a mix of UK and USA episodes, since the powers behind it from BBC Wales are now living and working in the US … I also think John meant that Russell T Davies has “planned” another 15 episodes, not written 15 more episodes … he is notorious for writing scripts at the last minute, as is proven in his latest brilliant book “The Writer’s Tale – The Final Chapter”
Jack!
