While many of the original Broadway cast of The Tony-Award winning Hamilton including: Lin-Manuel Miranda, Phillipa Soo, and Leslie Odom Jr., just departed the musical sensation, now comes word that former One Life to Live star, Renee Elise Goldsberry (Ex-Evangeline) is about to take her final bow in her Tony-Award winning role as Angelica Schuyler.
The talented Goldsberry is exiting this fall to star inthe new Netfilix’s original series, Altered Carbon! According to the Hollywood Reporter, Renee will appear in the 10-episode sci-fi drama from Skydance Television starring Joel Kinnaman.
Renee will play the role of Quellcrist Falconer, a revolutionary and leader of the rebellion against the Protectorate. She is a master strategist, as well as the love of Kovacs’ (Kinnaman) life.
As for the story set-up: set in the 25th century and based on Richard Morgan’s 2002 novel of the same name, the series explores what happens when the human mind becomes digitized and the soul is transferable from one body to another. Kinnaman who plays Takeshi Kovacs, is an ex-elite interstellar warrior known as an Envoy who has been imprisoned for 500 years and is downloaded into a future he had tried to stop. If he can solve a single murder in a world where technology has made death nearly obsolete, he will get a chance at a new life on Earth.

More congratulations for Renee. She is such a multi-talented entertainer which she most definitely proved on One Life to Live. This new role sounds fascinating. I don’t subscribe to Netflix but may have to consider it.
Sounds too complicated and of no interest to me.
YAY for Renee! She’s such a talent!
I’m not a sci-fi fan, but I love that Renee takes on all kinds of projects! Plus, Joel Kinnamon is a cutie, so I’m sure they’ll look SUPERB together as an on-screen couple!
Now if only Frank Valentini could somehow lure REG back to ABC for a short, but meaningful, stint on GH. She’d be IDEAL as Dr. Hamilton Finn’s “presumed dead” wife! Michael Easton and Renee Goldsberry would be reunited again, and that would spell PERFECTION!

All My Children Alum Cornelius Smith Jr. Joins the Cast of Apple TV+ Limited Series, ‘Five Days At Memorial’
Daytime fans remember him fondly as the son of Jesse (Darnell Williams) and Angie Hubbard (Debbi Morgan), Frankie, on All My Children. And now, actor Cornelius Smith Jr., is set to join a major limited series based on the acclaimed nonfiction book by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Sheri Fink, about the the first five days following Hurricane Katrina made landfall entitled Five Days at Memorial.
Written by John Ridley and Carlton Cruse, Smith will play a doctor, (something he is very familiar with playing since Frankie Hubbard was a doctor in Pine Valley!) named Dr. Bryant King, an internist and one of the few doctors of color at the hospital, who finds himself very much in the middle of the crisis. He will headline the show alongside Vera Farmiga and Adepero Oduye.

The series will stream on Apple TV+, and no word yet as to when it will have its debut following its filming.
Since his time on All My Children, Smith has appeared on ABC’s Scandal, and had recurring roles on God Friended Me, Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C.J. Walker and Manhunt.
Deadline broke the casting news.
So, looking forward to seeing Cornelius back on our screens? Do you remember his work as Dr. Frankie Hubbard on All My Children? Comment below.
