Courtney: A 20-something African-American chorus member outlined as “incredibly attractive and confident, but also open-minded and non-judgmental.”

Danny: Another 20-something, hails from Brooklyn, straight, described as a “sexy, charismatic and musically gifted, but also self-destructive and remote.

Joe: Also from Brooklyn and planned as a “gay, very cute, incredibly open and optimistic" actor/singer/dancer.

NBC, which released its 2012-2013 schedule last week, has not announced an exact return date for Smash.
