Casting News and Other Stuff
Witchy Way
AHEAD
Blues Clues star, Donovan Patton, will soon be making a guest appearance
on the show.
OLTL hired over 100 extras to appear during the upcoming scene during
the mayoral election. The extras were hired to play reporters,
policeman, protesters and brides and grooms for the mass gay wedding
ceremony.
Ex-Joey Buchanan, once played by the handsome Nathan Fillion just
learned that his hit TV series, Castle, has been picked up for a full
season on ABC. This means the actor will be very busy with at least
another 17 more episodes - way to go Nathan! (Even though OLTL fans sure
miss him in Llanview!)
Actor Will Chase will soon be making his appearance as Dr. Nance, the
young surgeon who Matthew hired to do his surgery. Chase also played a
doctor in 2006 as Dr. Linn on As The World Turns.
More recently the actor has had roles on Law & Order, Criminal Intent,
Rescue Me and Four Single Fathers. Chase's first airdate will be on
Wednesday, November 11.
David Gregory, who played Ford, the producer of David's reality show,
will be returning to Llanview in December.
Roscoe Born makes his return to Llanview as the former cult leader Mitch
Laurence. Is he the real father of Rex Balsom and the one behind
Jessica's stalker?
Although actor John Brotherton (Jared) was fired from the show last
month, look for his character to make some ghostly visits to his friends
and family. In a side note, Brotherton has announced that he and his
family are relocating to California and has already had an audition for
Ugly Betty.
Citing lack of funds due to the sagging economy, ABC Daytime has
reversed its decision to convert One Life to Live to High Definition
television. A spokesperson for the network has stated that although its
request for funding to convert the soap to HD in 2010 have been denied,
ABC will make another request next year which would allow for a 2011
transition.
However, until that time, OLTL will become the only program on ABC's
Daytime schedule that will not be broadcast in HD, which does not help
in alleviating the fears of a possible cancellation of the show. *
