They’re back! Days of Our Lives stars Peter Reckell and Kristian Alfonso have signed on to tell more of Bo and Hope’s love story on the upcoming spinoff Days of Our Lives: Beyond Salem.
Reckell, 66, and Alfonso, 58, will be reprising their roles as Bo Brady and Hope Williams Brady, respectively, when the spinoff returns with five new episodes in July, Peacock announced on Monday, April 18.
The casting news comes as a surprise to many fans of the original soap opera as Reckell’s Bo was killed off in 2015. After Bo was reunited with Hope after being held captive for several years, he died after suffering a brain tumor. He later popped up in two 2016 episodes.
While Reckell exited the series after playing Bo on and off for 27 years, Alfonso was part of the show for 37 years before her 2020 departure.
“I’ve been there for an incredibly long time and am hugely grateful that I was able to be a part of the Days of Our Lives family for as long as I was. But in the last few years, Days of Our Lives is not the Days of Our Lives as I know it,” she told Soap Opera Digest in July 2020.
Alfonso noted that she “felt a sense of relief” after making the decision to leave the long-running drama. “It’s been a roller-coaster, for sure,” she added.
Later that month, the Falcon Crest alum told Entertainment Tonight that she was confident with her choice, saying, “I just thought, ‘You know what? It’s time to really write a new chapter.’”
Alfonso said at the time that she had no plans of “returning and popping in as others have done in the past.” She noted: “I think that chapter is closed and a new one needs to be started. … I have no regrets.”
The exact details of how Reckell and Alfonso will be reconnected on Beyond Salem have yet to be revealed.

Steven Gaydos Executive VP of ContentActress-director Anjelica Huston may have been born into film royalty and may have fulfilled that royal destiny by becoming the third generation, after actor grandfather Walter and director-actor-writer father John Huston, to score Oscar gold, but her early innings were not the stuff cinema dreams are made of.“Casino Royale” is the film where she first appeared, as an uncredited young teen 55 years ago this month. It is largely regarded as an overcooked comedy fiasco, or as Variety deemed it back then, “an attempt to spoof the pants off the James Bond.” The film had no less than five directors, including her father, John.Variety was kinder to John Huston’s 1969 film “A Walk with Love and Death,” Anjelica’s first starring role, but most other outlets were tougher on the film and Huston’s performance, and it came and went with little notice. In a vain attempt to overcome that fate, 20th Century Fox publicity took Anjelica and her costar, Assi Dayan (son of Israeli war hero Moshe Dayan) on a multi-city promo tour and ran this quirky early branded content item in Variety:“Assaf Dayan romances his costar Anjelica Huston, under the watchful eye of her director-father, John Huston.

James Bond franchise for not including any sex scenes in No Time To Die.The Benedetta director shared his thoughts on the 007 films following the news that Daniel Craig will be retiring from the role, saying many Hollywood studio films today are sexless.“It’s about crashing and blowing up,” Verhoeven said of franchises like 007, in an interview with The Sunday Times.“Sometimes these movies are fun, but the narrative tells you nothing about us now. I don’t see any other thought in Marvel or Bond movies.”Verhoeven shared his thoughts on what his own Bond film would look like, saying “I’d go back to reality” with “cars that don’t leap up into the sky.”The filmmaker went on to criticise No Time To Die for scrapping any intimate scenes between Bond, after praising the ones in Craig’s debut as 007 in Casino Royale.“There was always sex in Bond!” Verhoeven said.
