“Days of our Lives” alum Lucas Adams (ex-Tripp Dalton) is the latest actor to be cast on “The Young and the Restless.”

According to TV Insider, which first broke the news, Adams will portray Noah Newman on the daytime drama series, the eldest child of Nicholas Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon Newman (Sharon Case), and will begin taping this month at the show’s Television City-based studio in Hollywood with his first air date slated for sometime later this fall.

The role of Noah Newman was most recently portrayed by Rory Gibson, who is currently enjoying critical acclaim for his take as Michael Corinthos on “General Hospital.”

Since last appearing in Genoa City in 2023, Noah contemplated his feelings for Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks), who is married to his maternal half sister, Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes). Other romances included Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver) and, later, Allie Abbott Nguyen (Kelsey Wang), the granddaughter of Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman), and the latter of which left town with Noah so the two could enjoy a new life together in Europe.

Incidentally, Adams previously appeared on “The Young and the Restless” in a March 2012 episode, playing the uncredited role of Wesley.

The casting of Adams comes just one week after the show announced it had hired his former “Days of our Lives” co-star Tamara Braun (ex-Ava Vitali), who begins taping this week, and is set to play the newly created role of Sienna Bacall, a woman who has “personal connections to several characters” in Genoa City.

Adams joined the cast of the Peacock exclusive series in 2017, appearing on and off until 2024, while also earning two Emmy nominations for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Daytime Drama Series.

Outside of daytime, Adams has appeared in episodes of such shows as “Suburgatory,” “True Blood,” “Grimm,” “The Thundermans,” and more importantly, “Liv and Maddie,” where he met his his real-life wife, Shelby Wulfert, who played the double for series star Dove Cameron to help aide the actress appear as twins on the Disney Channel original series. Adams and Wulfert married in October 2022.

In addition to Adams and Braun, “The Young and the Restless” has also cast Roger Howarth (“General Hospital,” “One Life to Live”) for a mystery role.
