    Shows creator Ryan Murphy has the perfect part for Catherine Zeta Jones - but will she take it?

    Glee creator Ryan Murphy wants Catherine Zeta Jones to star in the hit show as Blaine Anderson's mother.

    Ryan Murphy is a huge fan of the actress and has the perfect part for her to play lined up already.

    When asked by a fan on twitter: 'Are we ever going to meet Blaine's dad? Will he be unaccepting, like it was hinted at before?', Ryan replied 'Not sure, but you know who I want as BLAINE's mom? Catherine Zeta-Jones!'

    If Catherine does except a role in Glee she'll follow in the footsteps of Britney Spears, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Hudson who have also enjoyed special guest cameos on the popular musical show.
