More good news for fans of All My Children. Vincent Irizarry, who played the villain, Dr. David Hayward from 1997 to 2011 has signed on to reprise his role in the soap set to return next year.
Irizarry made the announcement himself via Facebook, noting the announcement a few weeks ago that Prospect Park, the production company that bought the rights to the show, had signed deals with the key unions representing actors, directors and writers. Said Irizarry:
"Happy to share that I just signed on with Prospect Park for the All My Children
reboot," he wrote.
"Excited to bring dastardly Dr. David
back to life, as he did for so many others, and to see my dear friends
in Pine Valley once again. A great, big thank you to all the fans for
your tenacity in keeping the hope alive. You’re awesome!!! Let’s all
keep our fingers crossed together that it becomes a reality."
A co-star Lindsay Hartley, who played Dr. Cara Castillo, is also reported to be joining the online series, according to Soap Opera Digest.
Since the end of AMC, Irizarry has starred in a couple of TV movies, only one of which has aired to date.
Hartley, who appeared earlier on Passions and Days of Our Lives, also made a TV movie during the AMC hiatus.
Miss seeing Vincent Irizarry on AMC. Great actor. Hope to see him soon on AMC online version.
