It had been a long-standing conversation amongst Glee fans: who will be playing Rachel’s Dads on the show this season? We now have confirmation of the two actors set to play the Mr. Berrys and when you’ll see them on the show!

TVLine.com has exclusively revealed that Jeff Goldblum and Broadway star Brian Stokes Mitchell have been cast as Rachel’s dads:

A show insider confirms to TVLine exclusively thatonetime Law & Order: Criminal Intent detective Jeff Goldblum and Broadway veteran Brian Stokes Mitchell have been tapped to play Hiram and LeRoy Berry, the adoptive parents of Lea Michele’s character.

Not only that but they will be appearing soon, on the episode titled “Heart:”

The duo will first appear in the show’s Valentine’s Day episode — which as luck would have it will actually air on Feb. 14, and is titled “Heart.” And yes, they will sing.

Well now, isn’t this interesting. These two are a far cry from the photo of Rachel and her Dads that we saw hanging in her locker in a previous season (as seen below):

What are your thoughts about Rachel’s Dads? Are you happy that they’re more public actors, or would you have rather them stick to the people in Rachel’s photo?
