Fox officially announced they’ve pushed the season five premiere date of Glee back to Thursday, September 26, 2013. The move comes in response to Cory Monteith’s death on July 13, 2013 caused by a mixture of heroin and alcohol. The 31 year old actor was best known for playing Finn Hudson on the Fox series and the shift in premiere dates accommodates the delay in the start of production which is now set for sometime in early August in order to give the cast and crew time to personally deal with the loss of their friend and co-worker.
 
20th Century Fox Television and Fox Broadcasting Company also wanted Monteith and Glee fans to know that charities he was involved with over the years are accepting donations in his name:
 
· Project Limelight Society: www.projectlimelightsociety.org
 
· Virgin Unite: www.virginunite.com
 
· Chrysalis: www.changelives.org/donate
