Venturing away from her hit TV show to test her luck on the big screen, Lea Michele arrived for her first day of filming on the set of "New Year's Eve" in New York City on Monday (March 14).

Looking ever so overjoyed about the new gig, the "Glee" actress strutted through the Times Square locale clad in a colorful pea coat and jeans as she chatted with a few set workers prior to getting things underway.
