Martin, who will star as Che in April’s Broadway revival of Evita, would join Paltrow (and Idina Menzel) as high-profile guest stars who have played teachers on Glee.
Hours after news surfaced that the show had its eye on the singer-actor, Martin tweeted, “I hear McKinley high has an opening for a Spanish teacher… Maybe I’ll apply.”
Paltrow played sub Holly Holliday in three episodes of the series, picking up an Emmy for guest star in a comedy last year.
Broadway vet Menzel, meanwhile, is currently reprising her role as substitute math teacher Shelby.
Glee airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on Fox.
