'Scream Queens' co-creator Ryan Murphy has revealed that songstress Ariana Grande, who made an appearance in the pilot, will return later in the series. 

Speaking about her involvement in the show, which only premiered this week, Murphy explained that they haven't figured out how to bring her character back but they do know that she will definitely return at some point:

"She comes back I believe in episode 6 and maybe more. She’s recurring definitely. Everyone thinks she’s gone but she’s not gone. We’re just not sure how exactly she’s returning.I wouldn’t say ghost. Nothing you think is happening is happening on the show. You think some people are dead — they’re not dead.”

Nick Jonas, who also appeared in the first episode as Boone, confessed that his role is a 'deep' one and he will also be back: "I can tell you that he is a part of the team of people involved in this master revenge plan. His history with it goes very, very deep.”

Murphy added that when Jonas' character returns later this season he will look different: "Boone will return later this season but will look a little different. One of my favourite things is that he’s spying and traveling around the campus dressed incognito as Joaquin Phoenix.”
