Though Days of Our Lives viewers sadly said goodbye to John Black, played by Drake Hogestyn for over three decades, this departure brought a pleasant surprise: the return of Christie Clark’s Carrie Brady to the series. The 51-year-old actress gleefully rejoined DoOL to honor Hogestyn and his character, as she expressed in a recent interview.
Clark shared his thoughts on rejoining the Days of Our Lives cast, this time playing Carrie Brady alongside Drake Hogestyn.
Christie Clark says Carrie returns to Days of Our Lives to honor late Drake Hogestyn
During a conversation with TV Insider, Christie Clark shared her motivation for returning to Days of Our Lives. She mentioned that she felt compelled to come back because it was all for Drake Hogestyn. He served as her mentor, and they worked together extensively, forming a significant part of her professional growth.
Later, she reiterated the strong connection she shared with Hogestyn, expressing, “He imparted valuable life lessons about being kind and considerate. To me, he was more like a second father, and we were always pulling pranks on one another.
Christie Clark played Carrie Brady on Days of Our Lives for three periods: firstly from 1986 to 1989, and later from 1992 to 1999. Since then, she has frequently returned to the show which has been running for a long time.
regrettably, Christie Clark couldn’t be present when her Days of Our Lives mentor took his last breath due to the gravity of his illness. However, his passing left a profound impression on the entire DoOL cast, as they openly displayed their genuine feelings during Hogestyn’s John Black character’s death scene. Clark explained, “He passed away around five days after we finished filming. Since everyone was aware that it was terminal cancer, there wasn’t any acting involved when capturing the scenes of John Black’s end. It was just raw emotion for someone we all admired.
When asked about potentially rejoining Days of Our Lives, Christie Clark responded, “I’d likely revisit the show since it feels like family, but I’m focusing on other projects at the moment.
