The Young and the Restless’ cast remix continues. On September 3, TV Insider broke the news that the CBS soap had hired its third Noah Newman in five years. Lucas Adams, formerly Tripp on Days of Our Lives, has been tapped to take over the role that was previously played by Rory Gibson (now Michael on General Hospital), Robert Adamson (previously a substitute Michael on General Hospital), Kevin Schmdit and FBI: International’s Luke Kleintank.

A Cast Shake-Up Is In the Works

Adams’ casting comes on the heels of word that Emmy winners Roger Howarth, seen last as Austin on General Hospital, and Tamara Braun, who was Tripp’s mom Ava on Days of Our Lives, had been added to the Young & Restless lineup. Here’s all we know so far about who those MVPs will be playing and when they’ll first hit the screen.

What Will Noah’s Storyline Be?

Perhaps since the show is bringing Noah back after two years abroad — and without girlfriend Allie, it sounds like — it will finally revisit the character’s supposedly torrid past with vixen Audra, whose life was blown up by her ill-advised alliance with untrustworthy Victor. Or maybe he’ll offer relationship advice to old flame Tessa, whose marriage to Mariah is on life support after the redhead returned from a trip with a deep, dark secret that she refuses to divulge.
