Adam Recast on Y&R


That was fast. Per TVGuide.com, THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS has already recast Chris Engen following the news earlier that he had quit the soap.

Michael Muhney, whom VERONICA MARS fans will remember as Sheriff Lamb, is taking over the role of THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS' charming-yet-shady Adam Wilson, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.

Muhney's first air date on CBS' top serial is Thursday, June 25. He replaces Chris Engen, who has filled the role since February 2008.

On his Twitter page, Muhney is excited about the new role.

Muhney started taping today.

  1. Either Y&R casts at lightspeed, or the show was expecting this.

    I have no idea who this new guy is, but he's cute :)

  2. I really liked Chris Engen in the role and hate to see him leave, but do respect him being true to his beliefs, or whatever....

  3. Yay! An actor who won't act is NOT AN ACTOR. And the world of acting is really, truly NOT the place for a homophobe.
