DAYS Alum Tanner Stine to Appear in ‘Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story’ Starring Nicholas Chavez
Another face familiar to daytime fans has already boarded Ryan Murphy’s limited series, Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story which stars General Hospital favorite, Nicholas Chavez (Spencer Cassadine) in the role of Lyle.
Tanner Stine who played Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) and Steve’s (Stephen Nichols) son, Joey Johnson on Days of our Lives will also appear in the series.
In ‘Monsters’, look for Stine to portray the role of Perry Berman, who was Lyle and Erik’s friend and former tennis coach. In the story, Perry found himself at the epicenter of the murder mystery when he had accepted a phone call from Lyle shortly before the brutal murders of Jose and Kitty Menendez.
Other previously announced castings included: Cooper Koch (who plays Erik), Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny as parents Jose and Kitty Menendez, Nathan Lane as Dominick Dunne, Ari Graynor as Leslie Abramson, and Leslie Grossman as Judalon Smyth.
In the series, the two wealthy brothers stand trial for shooting their parents in Beverly Hills, amid claims of self-defense after years of abuse, while prosecutors alleged that greed was the motives for the killing. Lyle and Erik Menendez have been behind bars in California for more than three decades for the 1989 killing of their parents.
Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story will debut later in 2024 on Netflix.

More of the Story on ‘General Hospital’ Star Josh Kelly’s Latest Film Role in ‘The Workout’
We had previously shared that General Hospital’s Josh Kelly was taking three weeks away from his role of Cody Bell to a shoot a role in an upcoming movie entitled The Workout.
Josh originally revealed his role in the film during an episode of GH castmates, Steve Burton (Jason) and Bradford Anderson’s (Spinelli) podcast.
Now Deadline has filled in some of the blanks, and shared some intriguing intel on the premise of the film and its back-story. The film stars Kelly along with Peter Jae, and UFC Fighter, Ashlee Evans-Smith. Other cast members include The Bay’s Kristos Andrews.
In The Workout, two army rangers set out to create a workout video, but their plans are abruptly halted when a mob hit interrupts their filming. Tragically, one of the rangers loses his wife in the attack, sending him on a relentless mission to take down the mob and anyone who stands in his way.
The film from James Cullen Bressack, almost did not get financed. Apparently, ten days before his birthday, Bressack made a post on Instagram about the feature and production, casting, and financing came from the post … illustrating the power of social media. After the post gained traction, a producer provided financing and actors expressed interest in joining the project, leading to a quick production.
In a statement, Bressack shared, “As artists a painter paints, a musician makes music, a writer writes, but as filmmakers we have to ask permission to create. It’s time to change that narrative. This film spawned from a necessity to create. We create. We tell stories. We play pretend. I’m excited to take this journey. This is the truest form of collaboration and a community of friends coming together to make something fun. While our industry has had a rough time recently with strikes and a possible strike looming in the future, it’s nice to remind ourselves why we got into film to begin with. To have fun telling stories.”
No word yet on when The Workout will be released.
So, looking forward to seeing this collaborative effort featuring GH’s Josh Kelly? Comment below.

Y&R’s Hayley Erin Previews Her Role in Horror-Thriller ‘New Life’
Marcy Walker
Robin Christopher, Tamara Braun or Gina Tognoni!
Gina Tognoni if they are smart.
Sarah Joy Brown
I desire an actress of soap opera “Loaving”, that is very popular in other countries, like Italy…
for example: Noelle Beck … Lisa Peluso …Laurin Marie Taylor …the actress that personified Dinahlee Mc Berry …
I would love to see either Gina Tognoni (ex-Dinah, GL; ex-Kelly, OLTL) or Beth Chamberlin (ex-Beth, GL). Both women would be fantastic to see returning to daytime. Or maybe even a non-soap actress that could be up-and-coming!
I don’t know that Bill needs another sibling…hopefully Julie would be a hard-hitting ex-wife instead! I was kind of hoping B&B would bring BIll’s mother to town in the form of a powerhouse actress (think Elizabeth Hubbard) to be the only one who could control the uncontrollable Dollar Bill! However,,,an ex-wife would do!
I too would LOVE to see Elizabeth Hubbard as Dollar Bill’s mom! Bill Bell hear our voices…
robin christopher!!!!!
Wendy Moniz
It’s hard to say since the character description is so generic. There are so many talented actresses out there that I’d love to see on any show that it is hard to say one or another.
Julie Pinson
Gina and Tamara are a little young. Mid to late 40‘s…let‘s see…i would LOVE to see Marcy Walker back on soaps but last I heard she is doing something much more worthwhile and is heavily involved in her church, so she is not returning to soaps. I say Jensen Buchanan!! Loved loved loved her as Vicky on Another World. Maybe then they could lure Tom Eplin out of retirement too!
Shouldn’t julie spencer be one of caroline’s adopted siblings? That would be the most logical storyline bec the lesbian couple is based on joanna who has adopted children who are racial minorities. The spencer clan can have racial diversity thru this kind of casting. Here’s the problem for racial minority actors and particularly Asian american actors. No one hires them and creates roles for them on day soaps. They get no acting experience. And then casting calls are made for soap actors w/ acting experience on soaps only. Casting calls require that the actor is known from prior soaps. How can racial minority actors and especially Asian american actors get acting experience on soaps when there are no day soap operas that hire them? There are no day soap operas w/ any Asian american chars on abc and cbs! None on gh and yet it’s based on a hospital from a fictional town from ny w/c should have Asian americans among the medical storylines. None on days. None on y&r. None on amc. Only recurring chars on oltl. And none on b&b and yet there are tons of Asian american fashion designers! The population of l.a. has more Asian americans compared to African americans. There should be some Asian american chars on b&b. Casting julie spencer as an Asian american char who is adopted would be a good step towards rectifying that problem for b&b. Casting calls like these were part of the factors that made me quit even reading abt the storylines on b&b.
Catherine Hickland…….
Liam’s mother to get into it with Brooke –and Taylor
Liam’s mother is dead and never married Bill.
Julie Pinson.
I’m thinking a cousin.
I like Julie Pinson like others have suggested. I have no clue though and will leave casting up to Brad Bell.
an actress of Loaving please!!! for Italy!!!
Beth Ehlers, Maura West, Kelley Menighan Hensley, Martha Byrne 🙂 theres a few real good ones!!!
Maura West, Martha Byrne or Kelley Menighan Hensley!
Kelly hensley, Martha Byrne (or the actor who played Susan Stewart on As The World Turns)
Genie Frances!
Elizabeth Berkley
I know she’s busy, but Martha Byrne will be perfect for this role!
How do you apply for that position? what type of experience do they need?
I would love to see Martha Byrne back on soap.
Julie Spencer is Quinn.
Bill got fired and he will find a job at the Quinn ‘s
So this is for me very clear that Julie Spencer is Quinn! or can be Bills daughter!!!!
Because Wyatt is for sure Bills son!….This is what I believe.
I AM 12 YEARS OLD AND I AM A PIANIST AND ORGANIST! Thanks to my mom because she is my jewel and I love her so much!
I like all the characters in B&B. I save it ,when I come from the school I am watching it .
