There’s big casting news for Days of Our Lives. Chloe Lane, portrayed by Nadia Bjorlin, isn’t headed back to Salem. However, her sister Joy and her mom Nancy will be on canvas soon.

Joy Returns To Salem

Soap Opera Digest reported that Patrika Darbo will reprise her role as Nancy, which she originated. Soap newbie AlexAnn Hopkins will portray the grownup Joy. Nancy and Craig (Kevin Spirtas) conceived Joy when Chloe suffered from leukemia. A bone marrow match, Joy saved Chloe’s life.

The last time Joy was on screen was in 2005. The last time Nancy was in Salem was in 2022. During that return, Nancy and Craig divorced after he came out as gay. Before she left Salem, Nancy and Dr. Mike Horton (Roark Critchlow) began a romantic relationship.

You might recognize Hopkins from her appearances on Chicago P.D. or Criminal Minds. She also portrayed Trixie Dean on Sun Records. As for Darbo, soap fans likely remember her work as Shirley Spectra on The Bold and the Beautiful in addition to her portrayal of Nancy on DAYS.

The good news is that you won’t have to wait too long to see Joy and Nancy on your screens. They will be on the canvas starting the week of October 22.
