ATWT series matriarch Helen Wagner (Nancy Hughes) passed away Saturday, May 1. She was 91.

Van Hansis (Luke) revealed to We Love Soaps’ Damon Jacobs he will be starring in a horror film called Occupant.

We Love Soaps: How are all your fans still going to be able to find your work?

Van Hansis: I’ve got to get cast in something and then they can watch that [laughs]. But I am a doing a movie, I can talk about it now. It’s called, Occupant. It’s a horror film in the vein of [Roman] Polanski, that is, it’s a psychological thriller. It’s a lot of fun. It’s a big departure from Luke.

We Love Soaps: In what way?
Van Hansis: In every way. The character is nothing like Luke at all. I’m excited to try something new and I’ve never done a film before. We’re in pre-production now, and the whole process that comes into play is so excited.

CBS Soaps in Depth broke the news that Noelle Beck, who took over the role of ATWT’s Lily Snyder from Martha Byrne, has been put on recurring status. Does that mean that Lily is being phased out before the finale even airs? Or is ATWT paving the way to get Byrned again? We’ll have to wait and see. Stay tuned!

We have it on pretty good word that ex-GH, Days, and Y&R alum and real life husband of Julie Pinson, Billy Warlock, has started taping at ATWT as a “bad guy”. As soon as we have more deets, so will you!
