Waiting for the return of “Glee” over the past few months has been trying, to say the least. Now there’s news about upcoming guest star Neil Patrick Harris that makes us even more anxious for the return of the gang from McKinley High. EW.com reports that NPH will play Bryan Adam, a former glee club member and Will Schuester’s (Matthew Morrison) arch nemesis!

Bryan comes back into Will’s life (in the episode directed by Joss Whedon as a new board member at the school. A source reveals that NPH will tap into his “How I Met Your Mother” womanizing character Barney Stinson a bit, as flashback scenes reveal he was the one that got all the girls and solos, not Will.

Their rivalry grows as Bryan plans to cut the school’s art funding since glee club ruined his expectations of life. As EW explains, “Show choir ruined his life, made him feel he could be a star, but all he could do is book Carnival cruises. Now he wants vengeance.” That vengeance turns into a “climactic duet between Harris and Morrison.” No word on what the song will be, but we can confirm that will be an awful lot of adorable to try and fit on the small screen.

“Glee” returns to FOX on Tuesday, April 13 at 9 p.m. The Neil Patrick Harris episode is slated to air in May.
