Per TVLine:

Smash is back in the news-ies.
Rising Broadway heartthrob Jeremy Jordan, who earned a 2012 Tony nod for his starring role in Newsies, is joining the second season of NBC’s musical drama as a series regular, TVLine has learned.
Jordan will play a very sexy (and straight) Brooklyn-born singer with a self-destructive streak.
His character is one of three roles being added under new showrunner Josh Safran. The other newbies, gay Broadway dreamer Joe and African-American chorus member Courtney, have yet to be cast.
The trio will fill the void left by departing castmembers Jaime Cepero (Ellis), Raza Jaffrey (Dev) and Brian D’Arcy James (Frank).
Jordan — who will continue to appear in Newsies while he shoots Smash — guest-starred on Law & Order: SVU in 2008 and also had a role in the Queen Latifah comedy Joyful Noise.

He looks cute. And he can dance and sing.

I'm at work so ill have to check him out later but I just still hope Safran doesn't go to Glee with these three new characters

[Shirley Parker]

Let me die. He is so talented.

I'm not sure what you mean Kirk.

Now we have to wait to see who he'll be attached to (Ivy or Karen?).

[AtLongLast]

I've not heard of him but, oooooh he's cute

I'm not sure I've heard of him before, but it appears he's done mostly Broadway, a couple films (most known: Joyful Noise) and some TV guest appearances.

Megan's only 3 years older than Kat but I guess Karen is meant to be be quite a bit younger than Ivy, idk. Is Ivy meant to be early 30 s?

He and Karen could be a cute couple

Megan herself is 31 or so, but I'm not sure we know Ivy's precise age, other than she was on Broadway for 10 years. I guess we can assume at least 30. And Karen is supposed to be 24, or was in the pilot.

I know but they make her seem so much older than Karen in Smash

[AtLongLast]

Yeah, but I also think Kat just looks young in Smash Karen could have been 21 and Kat coulda pulled it off

[Savannah Wise]

This Jeremy guy looks kind of young too which is why I can't really see him with Ivy who looks much older

[Joffrey Baratheon]

You guys know that Megan is gonna fight for this guy hard right? And she will def get her way. She is obsessed with scoring Ivy a nice hot young bf.

Ikr, altho I guess having him and Karen be a potential item would be kinda obvious

Tuk are you worried about this?

[AtLongLast]

You guys know that Megan is gonna fight for this guy hard right? And she will definitely get her way. She is obsessed with scoring Ivy a nice hot young bf.

Lol true true

[Savannah Wise]

[AtLongLast]

[Joffrey Baratheon]

Might as well put money on it right now because that is happening.

[Savannah Wise]

oh that'd be much better

[AtLongLast]

Sepinwall would be all "in what world would he choose Karen over Ivy?"

[AtLongLast]

oh that'd be much better

I could see Karen doing that next season tbh .... I don't agree with stealing BFs obvi, but on this occasion I'd be cheering

[Savannah Wise]

hey at least this guy uses twitter! hopefully he'll post some pics while filming like some of the other cast members..

Jo you stole my bf so

[zembla]

He's probably for Karen...I'm guessing she'll be moving to the more affordable Brooklyn since she'll now be out of that sweet apartment her sugar daddy was paying for.

[AtLongLast]

Jo you stole my bf so

Wait, what, who?

[Savannah Wise]

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Yes. No worries, I'll send it with her upcoming album.

[Kirk]

i wish they could just amp up Wes's role and he, well Bobby, could basically just be the gay broadway dreamer.
