Jonathan Groff & Sanaa Lathan Will Be New Regulars of 2nd Season of Boss

February 6, 2012

Jonathan has been cast in 2nd season of Boss as Ian Todd.

Sanaa Lathan and Glee heartthrob Jonathan Groff have landed new regular roles on the second season of Starz’s drama series Boss. The Lionsgate TV-produced series stars recent Golden Globe winner Kelsey Grammer as ruthless Chicago mayor Tom Kane. Lathan is finalizing a deal to play Mona, Kane’s incorruptible new chief of staff, who becomes an obsession for him. Lathan, repped by ICM and John Carrabino, voices the female lead on Fox’s The Cleveland Show and was most recently seen in the feature Contagion. Groff will play Ian Todd, a smart and ambitious staffer in Kane’s office who steps into the void Ezra Stone (Martin Donovan) has left to offer astute council to Kane. WME-repped Groff is best known for his recurring role as villain-turned-good guy Jesse St. James on the Fox musical dramedy Glee.

New Year’s Eve Premiere (videos)

December 7, 2011

Here are a bunch of videos of Lea talking about Jonathan during New Year’s Eve red carpet. A couple in which you can see Jonathan in them. Also couple of interviews when Lea was promoting New Year’s Eve and mentioned Jonathan:



Lea Michele Spills on Glee

Many hold it as tradition to lock lips with someone when ringing in the new year, including “Glee” star Lea Michele.

And the newly single 25-year-old already has a plan in place. (Are we the only ones who can picture her “Glee” alter-ego Rachel Berry doing the exact same thing?)

“I’m a single girl, so I’ve brought in my best friend Jonathan [presumably, Groff] to give me my kiss on New Year’s Eve,” Michele told CNN Sunday.

“He’s going to take one for the team and give me my kiss. We were on Broadway together, and had to make out every single night, so it’ll be like old habit for me. But you’ve got to have somebody!”

You know, no pressure.
