2024 Emmys: Jane Lynch Predicts What Glee Would Look Like Today
View Date:2024-12-23 22:45:30
Wondering what you missed in the nearly 10 years since Glee went off the air? Well, not a whole lot if Jane Lynch had her way.
While the actress—who earned an Emmy for her biting portrayal of acerbic cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester—acknowledged that creator Ryan Murphy "would mine the music of today," she exclusively told Heather McMahan on Live From E!: Emmys, that she would prefer peppering in more than a few throwbacks.
"This would be a great way to go, to use all the pop songs from the '70s," said Lynch, who's presenting at the 2024 Emmys Sept. 15 and cheering on her Only Murders in the Building castmates. (See every star on the red carpet here.) "We haven't gotten any better since the late '60s and most of the '70s. I would love to see a whole season of Glee with just those pop songs, the stuff I grew up with on AM Radio."
And while we'd fully gleek out over seeing Lynch belt out "Bohemian Rhapsody" Sue Sylvester-style, she's currently, uh, killing it as Sazz Pataki on Only Murders in the Building, which collected 21 nominations for its third season.
Though the stunt double was—year-old spoiler alert!—offed in the 2023 season finale, Lynch was actually pretty thrilled with that turn of events.
"John Hoffman, who's the showrunner, came up to me the season before, and he said, 'You're our murder victim,'" Lynch recounted. "And I went, 'Oh!' I was really happy, because what that means is that you get to be in a lot of the next season, because they have to do flashbacks, and you're the focus of everything. So I like that. I have Leo rising. I love that. I want to be the focus."
And she's stoked not to be exiting the building just yet.
"It's very calm, very fun and very, you know, almost intellectual," she gushed of working on the Hulu series. "We talk about the world affairs, politics, and of course, because they're funny people, the comedy is sprinkled in, but it's one of the most chill, lovely experiences."
As was her prep before turning up on the carpet at Peacock Theater at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles.
"I had eggs, bacon and a hamburger," she revealed of how she spent her morning. "I love getting my makeup done because I love Amy Harmon, my makeup artist. I love being styled by Jackie Atkins. I just love those two girls. We have the best time. We had a blast. And then to get be with my agent, Joe Vance, and I'm with my favorite people."
Among them are former costars Andrew Scott, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and a slew of other talented small screen stars. See everyone who turned up and turned out at the 2024 Emmys.
