No, Micah is a contract role. Here's more info from my press release:

Jason47 Note: The role of Tori Norita could be for the mother of the new contract character Micah. Back in February, "Days" posted this casting call: DAYS is looking for a gorgeous 24 to 35-year-old African American male to play the contract role of Micah, who is described in the casting call as "charismatic confident and charming without even trying. Ladies want to date him and men want to be him. He gives off a very well rounded confident vibe but there is pain in his past that keeps him guarded." However, in the April 14 issue of Soap Opera Digest, the magazine stated that "Days" had revised the casting call and changed Micah from African-American to either a Hispanic or Asian male. The new casting call stated this: "The show is seeking a 24-30 year old gorgeous Hispanic or Asian male. Micah is a baseball player with fantastic looks and killer charm making him irresistible. He is masculine and charming but authentic so as not to come off as a 'playa' or slick."

With Tori Norita's arrival, looks like Micah will be Asian.

How about they write for the minorities on the canvas (e.g. Abe and Maxine) before we trust them with bring on more minorities. DAYS is in the basement when it comes to utilizing minorities.

I like that your subject line ends with two baffled question marks after "minority". That sums DAYS up.

They seriously just copy and paste this s hit don't they?? The casting calls are all the same. How about something different like....Ladies dont want to date him....men dont want to be like him or how about men want to date him....instead we get the same s hit minus either African American or Latino...etc..etc..

Does this mean the Wanchai Ferry product placement is coming back?
