John Travolta May Guest Star On 'Glee'

John Travolta may be coming to Glee. Ryan Murphy says that Travolta may appear in the planned Saturday Night Fever - themed episode thanks to a cast connection to the show."We've never done disco on the show, but I'm interested in the genius of The Bee Gees," said Murphy. "John Travolta and Cory Monteith (Finn) became close friends at a party when Cory told him he'd seen ‘Broken Arrow’ 20 times. Travolta sent him an autographed copy of the DVD. So maybe we'll have them dance in a Finn dream sequence."
The episode of Glee will air in April.
