The Young And The Restless spoilers suggest that a fan favorite might be leaving Genoa city permanently. There is speculation that our favorite Hunter King might be on her way out. Up until now, she was a recurring character on CBS Soap.
Everyone was hopeful that King might come back in full strength sooner than later. But it looks like that isn’t happening. She left the show in August 2021 due to contract issues, and now she might not return. There is a possibility that a Summer Newman recast might be in the works. Here is why we think so.
The Young And The Restless: A Casting Call Has Been Made
The Young And The Restless insider reveals that a casting call has been made. It reveals that a recast for Summer Newman could be in the works. Soap Hub reported that the CBS soap is looking for someone to fulfill a contract role, and it might be the role of Summer Newman. The report suggests that the casting call just started, so the search for new Summer has begun. But it will take time for everything to get finalized. So, it seems like viewers will get to see the new Summer Newman after a while.
There is good news for all Hunter King fans that before leaving Young & Restless, Summer will actually appear on the show on a video call this February 21, 2022. Summer will talk to her mother, Phyllis, who will turn down the Marchetti job offer. Phyllis will also ask Summer to visit Genoa city soon. So, it looks like we will finally get to see our favorite one last time on the CBS soap.
As The Young And The Restless casting breakdown goes, makers are calling Summer Newman a “dynamic and attractive woman,”. They also mentioned that the character likes to have fun with being dignified and poised. The puzzle pieces come closer when there is talk of a “rich and powerful family”. Fans know that Summer is the granddaughter of Victor Newman. Victor is currently the most powerful man of Genoa City, so it indicates towards Summer completely.
There is a rumor that the role talks particularly about someone in her late 20s, and it looks like that will be a three-year contract. This means that Y&R is planning some interesting storylines. Since there is a recast for Summer, it seems like her husband’s recast will also happen soon. There is also a possibility that Summer might come back home divorced. Undoubtedly, there will be so much drama when Summer returns to Genoa. We have to wait and watch.
Hunter Is Busy
Y&R fans want Hunter back on the show, but it looks like the actress is busy outside of the soap. It’s good news for the actress that she got a new role in a new film. The film is expected to come out by the year-end. The untitled thriller by Top Dead Center Films is written by Julie Auerbach and Kevin Tavolaro and directed by Gary Auerbach. Well, that is good for her, and we wish her lots of good wishes.
