Is Rob Wilson going to play another role on Days?

[victoria foxton]

Not sure if this is true or not. But i've been hearing about it on Twitter for a while now.

Sure is, he's going to play Alexander Kiriakis

So, you mean to tell me that Ben spent all that time from getting out of that sh!thole studio apartment and then finding a brand new place to raise their child just for the both of them to leave town? LMAO! But, this show loves him so much that he'll be playing a new role several weeks later? Well, I guess it's not too strange as Brandon Barash came back and is playing Stefan's twin brother Jake Lambert. But, this isn't a twin role.

Does this mean Jake and Ava get to move into Ben and Ciara's apartment? And if Jake and Ava move out of that crap studio apartment, will this mean that it will become Belle's new office?

[dragonflies]

Hit the nail on the head with the first part lol

They recast Bo Brady back when this show had many more millions of viewers.  They could easily have recast Ciara again.  How stupid.

I know this has nothing to do with him, but I am blaming this on Frank Valentini lol.

this is for the best. Ben should NEVER have been "redeemed" and paired with Hope and Bo's kid. A MESS. GTFO the show, tbh. I hope Ben never comes back even if Ciara does.

Ew why? Just cut him.

[Gray Bunny]

LOL.. this is what happens when the headwriter has a raging hard-on for you. Congrats RSW on keeping your job.

I think people have a problem with the character Ben and not necessarily the actor.  That said, there's other actors out there.  And with that said, look at Bonnie/Adrienne or Josh Taylor's two different roles on the show.

How do you think they'll handle the dialogue when referencing Xander vs. Alexander?  Will they just call the new one Alex?

[janea4old]

I think Sonny always refers to him as Alex anyhow.

[gtru1981]

The actor is just horrible. So, is Alex going to have a thick Boston accent, because RSW, you can clearly hear him talk with it, sometimes, it comes out very thick.

I would rather have the actor who plays Ben, been Alex.

I've wanted them to cast Alex Kiriakis for years. There's a ton of stories you can tell by bringing him to town. So because of that, I'm going to try to keep an open mind, but my main concern is I don't think RSW is talented enough of an actor to pull off playing a new character, especially with this quick of a turn around. 

If he's sharing a lot of scenes with Zach, Wally, Judi and John Aniston, they are all really good actors. I just hope some of their talent rubs off.
