Gleeks out there have had their fair share of being teased and tormented when it comes to rumors of cast member departures, so when talk started to hit the Internet that Glee's Cory Monteith, 30, wouldn't be appearing in the upcoming first episodes of season four, the Gleek club out there in the real world started to get a little tense.

Don't worry, though, Lea Michele, 26, assures that everything is okay with Finn and on track with the much-beloved Finchel. Furthermore, it appears that good things come to fans who wait.

"I can say that Cory is fully on the show this year," Michele told E! Online to lay all the frantically whispered rumors (and blood-curdling cries) to rest. "And what he will be doing this year is very exciting. His storyline is so cool and so different. You couldn't even ever guess," she assured. "Honestly! It's like, amazing. So that's something the fans can really look forward to. And people saw the pictures of us filming together in New York City, so they won't even have to wait too long."

While it was hinted at that Finn might be going into the army, it will be revealed that his plans to do so were short-lived in season four of Glee. "Cory did get an 'Army' haircut," Michele revealed. "But I think that was Cory just wanting to cut his hair!"

Glee, also starring Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Jane Lynch, Matthew Morrison and Amber Riley returns to FOX on its new night, Thursday, September 13 at 9 p.m. EST.
