Matthew Morrison is already dropping hits on FOX’s “Glee” and in fall 2010, the Broadway-turned-primetime star is hoping for a few hits of his own when he releases his debut album.
The Golden Globe-nominated actor will enter the recording studio shortly to begin production of his album, according to a statement released to Access Hollywood.
The “Glee” star, who plays “Glee” club mentor Will Schuester on the hit FOX show, revealed to Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush in October that his record will have an adult pop feel.
“It’s going to be different. I would consider it a classier Justin Timberlake album,” he said at the time. “It’s going to be me and a big orchestra, but also with beats.”
“Kind of like Timberlake meets [Michael] Buble?” Billy asked.
“Exactly,” Matthew said.
Of course, music is nothing new to the 30-year-old star. A veteran of Broadway, Matthew’s stage credits include “Footloose,” “The Rocky Horror Show,” “Hairspray,” “South Pacific” and “The Light in the Piazza,” which earned the actor a Tony nomination in 2005 for his role as Fabrizio Nacarelli.
“Glee” will return with new episodes on April 13.
