Is THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL Recasting Ridge?
B&B is seeking to cast a role that sounds a lot like Ridge Forrester. "Harper" is described as a Caucasian man in his mid-to-late 40s. The casting call reads: "Handsome! Very upscale.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Ronn Moss is 61 so the age on this casting call doesn't match up with that, but characters are suddenly older and younger on daytime soaps all the time.
The Long Ranger's William Fichtner on landing a job on AS THE WORLD TURNS in the 1980s
"Soaps were very different in New York. If you were an actor and you were doing theater in New York, let me tell you something, if you got an arc for a month or two on a soap, it was a great day because you sure weren’t making any money in the theater! So soaps in New York would get really good actors. I remember when I was doing AS THE WORLD TURNS Julianne Moore was on the show. Steven Weber had just left the show when I was coming on the show. Elizabeth Hubbard, Larry Bryggman, Parker Posey, they were just really, really interesting actors. So when the job came up for me, when I got offered the role of Rod Landry on AS THE WORLD TURNS the same day that I got that I got offered a regional theater production in Portland, ME. I gotta tell you something, it was a tough call whether I should do this play, this Lanford Wilson play that I wanted to do for so long, or to go into this whole different financial sort of thing. I thought, 'Oh man, what do I do with this?'
"So I chose to go, obviously, with AS THE WORLD TURNS, and it was tough. It was tough because I just wanted… I was looking for something else in my career, not necessarily to be on a soap, but I will tell you this – and the important thing about why I’m talking about this so long-windedly – is this: being on AS THE WORLD TURNS, and being in front of that camera every day for hours and hours, those first six, seven months I swear that boom could have picked up my heartbeat. It was nerve-wracking! I’d never really been in front of a camera. But I remember those days fondly, because by the time I left there, after two years, it’s not like I was comfortable, like 'lazy' in front of a camera, I just felt comfortable 'being' in front of it, where I could focus more. I thank AS THE WORLD TURNS for that experience and getting me that sort of confidence in front of a camera."
