Days of our Lives C&G News

Have any new actors or actresses been cast on the show in contract, recurring, or day-player roles? Are any well-remembered stars from other soaps, past or present, about to join the Days of our Lives fold in surprising new parts? Here’s the latest casting news from the Peacock soap.

The week of December 18, 2023

Colton Little returns to Salem as ISA agent Andrew Donovan on Wednesday, December 20. He’ll have emotionally charged scenes with his wayward Salem sister, Emily O’Brien’s Theresa.

The Horton Christmas tree trimming party gets underway on Friday, December 22, which means a few key members of the family will be popping in for the festivities. Revered vet Bill Hayes, who was conspicuously missing for Thanksgiving, is back on the scene as Doug Williams. 

Also appearing will be Henry Witcher as Chad’s (Billy Flynn) son, Thomas DiMera. The role was previously portrayed by Daytime Emmy nominee Cary Christopher. (We hear Christopher will be back soon.) And Autumn Gendron returns as Chad’s daughter, Charlotte DiMera.
