The 100th episode of Glee is shaping up to be a star-studded event! On Friday, it was reported that Gwyneth Paltrow will return to the hit show to reprise her role as substitute teacher Holly Holiday. This will be her fourth appearance.

Other returning guest stars include original cast members Harry Shum Jr., Amber Riley, Heather Morris, Dianna Agron and Mark Salling, as well as Kristin Chenoweth, reprising the character of April Rhodes. 

A new guest star will also be coming to McKinley for the big event — on Thursday, Matthew Morrison confirmed to E! that Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford will appear in the two-part episode. “I think he’s going to be Dianna Agron’s [Quinn] new love interest,” the actor explained. “His name is Biff. He’s kind of a Yalie degenerate.” Dianna’s character left Glee after Season 3 to attend Yale, and only showed up in three episodes of Season 4. This will be her first appearance in the fifth season.

Matthew also spilled that he and Kristen will be performing a Pink song for the episode. It will air in two parts on Glee’s new day, Tuesday, March 18 and March 25. Following the 100th ep, the next several weeks will reportedly take place solely in New York.
