Members Ann_SS Posted March 7, 2013 Members Share Posted March 7, 2013 Great casting! I have seen him I in lots of different things over the years. Mark Pinter did apparently tweet that was about to finish filming this or next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 7, 2013 Members Share Posted March 7, 2013 "I’m working on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS that just celebrated its 40th anniversary," he explained. "They came to me with a character that I just couldn't refuse." "The difference in working in the soap world, you have to come totally prepared and you’re there and you basically have one take," Todd continued. "I look at that as a challenge and my character is really a unique one. I play a prisoner who’s falsely accused of murdering his wife." Todd debuts on March 19 but isn't sure how long he will be sticking around Genoa City. "I've done 4 episodes so far and I’m going to do at least 20," he said. "So that’s what I’m doing right now, I just worked yesterday. It’s a whole new demographic, I have my reasons for everything that I do." Todd's primetime appearances include roles in 24, SMALLVILLE and CHUCK. His movie roles include Final Destination, Sleepwalk and Candyman. http://www.welovesoaps.net/2013/03/tony-todd-joins-young-and-restless.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NothinButAttitude Posted March 7, 2013 Members Share Posted March 7, 2013 Well if Y&R's intentions was to cast someone to really strike terror in the audience, they cast the right man. Tony Todd is a stellar (but scary looking) actor. I just hope that the execution story wise is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
