Ted King is making a guest appearance on “The Bold and the Beautiful”, reprising his role as Jack Finnegan, the criminal defense attorney.
It sounds like Jack’s encounter with his estranged wife, Dr. Li Finnegan, played by Naomi Matsuda, will be quite dramatic. King’s character has been on quite a journey since his debut in 2021, appearing in 37 episodes so far.
It’ll be interesting to see how this reunion plays out, especially after his last appearance in June 2023.
The soap opera star is back on set and possibly filming scenes at CBS Television City in Los Angeles, where both The Carol Burnett Show and General Hospital are filmed.
His Instagram post on June 14 teased his return, showing him in front of signage for The Carol Burnett Show.
“Love being back in this building where icons have roamed the hallways for years,” King wrote in the caption of his post, tagging the production studio.
During his break from the daytime series, King was involved in the 2023 Oscar-winning film “Oppenheimer,” showcasing his versatility across different roles.
It’s also interesting to note that Crew Morrow, son of “Young and the Restless” star Joshua Morrow, is set to make his acting debut on “The Bold and the Beautiful,” taking over the role of Will Spencer starting August 1.
Additionally, Jamison Belushi, daughter of Jim Belushi, will join the series as a lab technician named April in an episode airing on July 17.
These developments bring fresh faces and talent to the soap opera scene, adding to its ongoing drama and intrigue.
Clint Howard shared his excitement about returning to the soap opera world with his new role as the mysterious homeless man Tom on “The Bold and the Beautiful.”
In an interview back in April, he described his experience on set as “exhilarating,” particularly enjoying the fast-paced production style of the show.
His portrayal of Tom adds an intriguing new dimension to the storyline, reflecting his seasoned acting skills and contributing to the ongoing drama of the series.
“You’re handed a lot of scenes to do and you’d better be prepared,” he explained. “I was taught by both my mom and dad, Rance and Jean Howard, since I was a little kid that my primary responsibility is to be prepared to show up to work, even as a very young child. And then knowing that soap operas, it’s possible to get handed boatloads of dialogue, and you’ve got to learn it.”
“You’ve got to understand it,” Howard added. “You got to be able to deliver it. You got to be light on your feet.”
