Development
Casting and creating
Quinn is described by actress Dianna Agron. In casting Glee , the creator of the series, Ryan Murphy, is looking for actors who can identify in a hurry to star in a theater role. Instead of using traditional network casting calls, he spent three months on Broadway looking for unknown actors. Agron was the last major actor to be cast, having won the role just days before the pilot began filming. Agron auditioned for Glee from dancing and acting backgrounds. He has been taking dance classes since the age of three, appearing in many musical theater productions and has appeared in television roles for Skidmarks, CSI: NY and Heroes. Glee producer says "we are really lucky to find Agron to play Quinn".
In December 2010, Ryan Murphy announced that the Glee players will be replaced at the end of the third season to coincide with their graduation. Murphy said: "Every year we will fill in a new group, nothing more sad than a high school kid with a bald spot." He also revealed that some of the original cast will go as early as 2012: "I think you have to be honest with the fact that here's a group of people coming and going in the lives of these teachers." Although four senior graduates were confirmed in January 2012 as returning in the fourth season - Rachel, Finn, Kurt and Santana - there has been no announcement about Quinn or any other senior at the end of February 2012. In May 2012, Murphy stated that all the graduating seniors will return for season 4 but, not all will do "all 22 episodes".
Characterization
Quinn is described by Agron as the enemy of Rachel Berry (Lea Michele), and "horrible, cruelest girl". Agron says that his favorite part of Quinn is that "he's smart, but he's also human, and through his hard exterior, he's often a lost little girl." Lauren Waterman of Interviewmagazine.com described it as "a loved one, but sometimes a manipulative manipulated queen." Agron commented: "Yes, there are stereotypes with these characters and it would not be fair if [the stereotypes were] not a little bit, but [co-creator] Ryan Murphy has a way to take them all and change them This is a wonderful thing about this show and these characters: no one notes, that's amazing. "Quinn was originally conceived as queen antagonist queen cheerleader, a departure from the true Agron school experience. Agron said in an interview with HitFix: "I'm really not cool in high school.I really do not.I've come from many clubs and are in leadership in the yearbook and performing musical theater routes, so I have friends in all areas , but I certainly do not know what to wear, do not know how to get my hair done, all that. "He added:" I think it shows that regardless of who you are and which group you are from, that there are so many emotions behind each people in high school.Sometimes with teenagers, writers or directors, whoever, short-change them and make them into simple, simple individuals, you're either an athlete or a popular kid or a nerd.They do not show that nuance. have a feel for them.This show, it really extends to the vulnerability and excitement and outrage all the experiences you might experience in high school. "
Quinn's role as head cheerleader is very important to understand his character. Agron said that he had never had experience cheering before before the Pilot. "If I [a cheerleader], I'll end up with crutches," he told Emmy magazine. In an interview with HitFix he said, "I have a new respect for the craft, because I hurt myself a bit during the pilot, down from one of the stunts.Now better I do not tear anything on my knees but I Stretch it, Knee very sensitive, I have learned, this is crazy, because I have been dancing since I was three years old on my toes and all these things And you should never say this, but I have never ever injured myself I have seen injuries to dance and all these things.You should not say that, because every day is a chance to fall, hurt yourself, so that's my experience. "

He sees it as a regression of the characters, and comments: "Yes, it feels like Classic Glee, because the series starts with the two of them together, but both have changed - Quinn is more So, than Finn - and makes them date again it looks like they're going back to those times when Quinn became the ice leader, Cheerio and Finn are good but stupid star quarterbacks. "
