Colfer plans to stick it out until the end.
The rumours of Chris Colfer’s Glee exit have been greatly exaggerated. The 24-year-old actor, who rose to fame playing Kurt Hummel on the hit musical show, has no intention of leaving anytime soon. Any reports that he did were due to a prankster hacking Colfer’s twitter account and tweeting under his name, E! reports.

So Colfer isn’t abandoning ship, but he does agree with the decision to cancel Glee after this coming season. Speaking to E! he said: "I think it will be a good time to conclude the series. It's a very, very difficult show to do, as everyone knows, and I think when people say that we're the hardest working cast and crew in television, I don't think it's an overstatement. I think it's very much the reality."
The show has suffered greatly since the death of Cory Monteith back in 2013.
