“It’s a really big secret,” Darren Criss explained of the one thing every Glee fan wants to know: is he going to play Kurt’s new boyfriend?

Criss will be playing an openly gay student at Dalton Academy who meets Kurt (Chris Colfer) and acts as a “mentor” to him.

“It’s great to see a strong character like this on a hit show that so many people are watching,” Criss said of Blaine. But will he be Kurt’s man? “My guess is as good as anybody’s,” Criss admitted. Or has he simply been sworn to silence? You decide - Blaine will be introduced to the world of Glee on November 9.
