NBC’s Smash is looking to cast three new actors to join the ranks of Debra Messing, Katharine McPhee, Megan Hilty and the rest of the ensemble.

As TVLine reports, Smash is casting:

Courtney – an “incredibly attractive and confident, but also open-minded and non-judgmental” black chorus member with a powerhouse voice.

Danny – a straight working-class 20-something who is “sexy, charismatic and musically gifted, but also self-destructive and remote,” and has a rock/soul voice.

Joe – a “gay, very cute, incredibly open and optimistic” guy from Brooklyn.

Smash will return for season 2 as a midseason entry, but production begins in July. What predictions do you have for these new characters next season? Who would be good for the parts of Courtney, Danny and Joe?
