"Glee" star Chris Colfer has joined the cast of British upcoming comedy "Ab Fab: The Movie".
The Mandie Fletcher-directed movie and written by Jennifer Saunders is based on the television show Absolutely Fabulous.
Colfer, 25, said his character is a
hairdresser-slash-social media consultant, reported Entertainment Weekly.
"Jennifer Saunders is one of my heroes. I can't believe she wrote the part for me," the actor said.
Kim Kardashian is set to make a cameo in the film, which Colfer called the "Real Housewives before the Real Housewives."
The movie also stars Saunders, Joanna Lumley, Julia Sawalha, June Whitfield, and Jane Horrocks.
Makers are eyeing a 2016 release date.
