And it seems Mr Murphy’s keen to make the most of Gwynnie’s singing and dancing talents.
‘Gwyneth is a great singer,’ he told the BBC.
‘She's done it a little bit but and show everyone how great she is,’ he added.
The famous producer also confirmed newlywed Spaniard Javier Bardem will appear as a famous rocker, and joked that he didn’t need much persuading to take the part.
‘Let me set the record straight - I didn't have to convince him, he begged!' he said.
‘He loves the show and wants to play a crazy Spanish rock and roll singer so I'm going to do that.’
Glee season 2 is set to hit UK screens in January.
