Chris Colfer Is Struck By Lightning
Chris Colfer Is Struck by LightningThe Glee star, who’s just 21 years old, wrote the script for and stars in this dark comedy (release date TBD) about teenager Carson Phillips, whose titular encounter with electricity is anything but positive. ”My character dies on page 1,” explains Colfer, seen here with Allison Janney, who plays his mother. ”He gets struck by a bolt of lightning and is killed. Then we journey to my funeral, and then everything else is a flashback to his last year in high school.” As for whether Carson bears a resemblance to Colfer’s TV persona, Kurt? ”Well, they look alike,” jokes Colfer. — Tim Stack
