This is the problem w/ hollywood. Unknown actors who are white get chances to portray lead characters on films while unknown actors who are racial minorities are never cast as lead chars on a major film. Nobody britsh actor jim sturgess was cast as lead on movie 21 w/c was abt Asian american MIT student. Nobody hemsworth was cast as leach char thor. hollywood cast a nobody white actor for the lead role on a summer movie franchise! It’s bec tolerant hollywood keeps wanting to launch only white actors as leading men. While hollywood’s leading man “diversity quota” is filled… Read more »
These are the things that actors of color have been saying for years so nothing surprises me anymore. Just take a look at some of the terrible injustices that have happened lately in this country so you know things will never be fair or equal for minority actors in Hollywood.
I agree completely. Things will never be fair or equal for people of color or minority groups anywhere in the world. Equality for all is actually a major farce, especially in the USA. Even the Presidents and Leaders can’t do anything about the rotten Justice Systems.
Good for Billy. I loved him as Casey, and always thought he had the “It” factor.
So happy for him….i always believed most of the ATWT actors were some of the best & to work with with Meryl Streep…..a dream come true !
I was all set to say… what a magnificent opportunity… till i read… he was nominated for a Tony…
how excellent is this….
course, it’s always been my opinion… that the ATWT’ “cast” has the most success… of all the soap world.
He’s Margo and Tom’s son…
Oakdale moment…. Margo is one thing….. but… when you add in Lyla, her mother… whom I just loved… and Lyla’s sister Maggie Crawford andropoulus…. dang… I loved Maggie when she was attorney… the fights she’d get in with Margo…. what a hoot.
I really miss As The World Turns…wish someone would bring it back, like One Life to Live and All My Children were brought back! ATWT was an awesome show.
Nice to see As the world turns actors are being recognized. They had some of the best, and some of the best writers until the end. I watched the show for years and just before the end they destroyed the show, let the real actors leave and let the set eaters dine. Congratulation to Billy. World certainly had lots of alums go on to better things.
I am absolutely thrilled for him and wish him all the best! So nice to see daytime stars making it big(ger) (Because they’re already big stars to us daytime fans) as their careers progress.
So, so happy for BM. But, unfortunately most talented actors of ATWT have not got anything nice since the show went defunct. I hope my favorites including VH, ESS, JS, MH, TC, VH, TD get some good and long-time roles on shows or are picked up as major characters for movies. Had it not been for the stupid EP and HW who completely destroyed ATWT in its last two years; the ratings would have remained high and the show would still be on. It’s a thorough shame that ATWT was not resurrected like OLTL and AMC. Even if it were,… Read more »
I’ll never understand how Goutman and Passanante continue to get work being the hacks they are.
Oh! Dear; are those 2 idiots employed. My 100% sympathies with the characters they are going to destroy or kill off; and the shows they are going to drain down the toilet.
Which shows are they working for? I want to stop watching those shows. After the ATWT debacle, I vowed never to watch anything with which CG and JP are associated.
I saw him on Broadway- if you’re in town and if he’s still in the show- run to see him. He is VERY hot in the play, Vanya And Sonia And Masha And Spike. (He plays Spike.)
@RLeternal…If I’m not mistaken, Passanante is a writer for General Hospital, not the HW thankfully. And Goutman directs for either AMC or OLTL, I don’t remember which show. I guess as long as he’s not an EP or writer they figure he can’t destroy their show.
Thanks! Ann. I do not watch GH. But, I hope GH never appoints her HW unless they want to go off air. I don’t watch AMC and OLTL either. So, if the other idiot of ATWT is employed by either AMC or OLTL, then they better not make him EP. I hope those 2 are not taken in by DOOL or YR; if they do, I will stop watching those soaps.
LOL!
